Change your background color to a dark blue or one that you want his hat to be I am using #00007F. Your foreground (styles) color should still be set on black. Draw a triangle on top of your
hat rim, Again using your object selector tool
Depending upon your size of hat you may need to add a couple more nodes and play around with it to get it to shape right. Once you get your hat shaped the way you want it go to layers convert to raster, Now open your layer palette up put an x over Layer 1 and the head layer and go to layers merge visible. Rename this layer Hat.
I added some dots to my hat if
you would like to do this follow on with this next step if not then go to the
next step. First add a new layer, doesn't matter what the name of this
layer is . I added this to another layer because I am going to blur it a little
here in a second. To add the dots using your airbrush tool Using these settings
Now just spray some dots all around your hat,
When you get it the way you want it, go to effects, blur, gaussian blur and
use the same settings as before
Click ok, going back to your layer palette, a red x should still be over your head layer and layer 1, again we want to merge visible the new layer you just added so go to layers merge visible name this layer hat, this makes the dots added to your hat layer you should still have 3 (three) layer, from bottom to top, Layer 1, head, and then your hat. Once your merge visible your layers you can un x those layers so that you can view them again. Your Snowman should now look similar to this
