Pumpkin Art

Happy Friday!!  For some reason this has felt like a very long week and I am definitely in need of a weekend! Anyone have any fun plans?  I think I will just be excited to spend a couple of mornings in my pajamas this weekend!  And maybe finish up a project or two…

Speaking of projects, I thought that I had finished up all of my fall decorating, but then my lovely boys pointed out that I still had my spring art hanging up.  I kind of got a way with it for the summer but it definitely wasn’t going to pass for fall decor.  Less than an hour later, those spring flowers had transformed into pumpkins!

To make the pumpkins, all you need is a circle punch {I used a 2 inch and 3 inch punch} and some patterned scrapbook paper.  I used 5 circles for each of the pumpkins.  Once I had punched my circles, I used a paper edger to rough up the edges.
Fold the circles in half, and glue 1/2 of one circle to 1/2 of the next circle until they are all joined up.  {If you wanted to make a full pumpkin to hang or sit on a shelf, just add more circles}. I ripped some brown cardstock to create the ground and then glued the pumpkins down.  I then glued some sticks down for the stems {I like using Quick Grip glue} and twisted some paper for the leaves.
It was still looking a little plain so I added a few wheat shoots and some wording around the matting.
Now I can’t wait to get out to the real pumpkin patch with the boys!
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

    So glad I can comment on this post. I had an issue trying to comment on your turkey fondue and apple crisp posts. 🙁

    Anyway…
    This is SUCH an adorable project! Thank you for sharing. I just may have to go pick up some pumpkin-y paper so that Runt and I can do this together. 🙂
