The challenge this week at Simon Says Stamp is paper-piecing. These pumpkins are perfect for doing just that! I pieced my background with 2 dotty papers, then stamped the pumpkins on top to use as my base for piecing them. Then I stamped each of them 6 or 7 times, cutting out individual slices to piece together over my base. After I'd added the sentiment, they looked lonely, so I stamped and cut out some maple leaves to keep them company.
Supplies: scraps of various printed papers, Hero Arts G5269 Tall Pumpkin, F5270 Traditional Pumpkin, CL119 Happy Thanksgiving (leaf), The Paper Company Autumn Stamp Kit (sentiment)
This is wonderful, they are the most festive pumpkins I've seen in a while! Did you get the cute Thanksgiving set from the x-mas release, I think you'd do wonders with that set!
