Wearing clean rubber gloves (for handling hot mixture), shape remaining mixture popcorn into 2 balls, one slightly larger. On large plate, place smaller popcorn ball on top of larger popcorn ball to form snowman's body. Shape reserved popcorn mixture into coneshaped hat; place on top of snowman's head. In a mall bowl, mix confectioner's sugar with 1 1/4 tsp water to form a thick pasty frosting. Cut snowman's mouth from fruit roll; cut remaining fruit rolls into strips. Attach strips around neck for scarf and on hat for decoration. With frosting, attach 1 green gumdrop to snowman' face for nose, and 2 purple gumdrops for eyes. With frosting, attach remaining green gumdrops around base and on tip of hat. With frosting, attach raisins to snowman's body for buttons.
