SU! PAPER PUMPKINS - MADE WITH DESIGNER PAPER

In another few days it will officially be FALL.  Or...as some say "AUTUMN." Have you started to decorate your home yet?  Some put up fall wreaths and pumpkins outside.  Others decorate their mantles or kitchen/dining room tables.  I think these pumpkins are adorable and so easy to make.  These would be great over the fireplace or on an entrance table or even in the kitchen or dining room.  You could even give these as little gifts.  What teacher or admin assistant wouldn't love this left on their desk.

Look what I found on the SU! BLOG.

I’m a big Paper Pumpkin fan—you know—Stampin’ Up!’s papercrafting fairy godmother who brings you a kit of awesomeness every month?

But if you’d like to whip up an actual paper pumpkin—here you go! This fun project is a snap to make using the Big Shot, the Circles Collection Framelits Die, and our funMotley Monsters Designer Series Paper.
Cut approximately twelve circles and make a paper pom pom (http://www.stampinup.com/home/en-US/blog-post/corporate-blog/2013/04/16/tricky-tip-tuesday-pretty-pom-poms)—but before you start gluing the circles together, cut the bottoms off to allow the paper pumpkin to stand upright.

Cut a rectangular piece of scrap Kraft Cardstock to create a stem and add a tag made using the Ghoulish Greetings Stamp Set.
That’s it! Make a bunch of these to decorate your house for Halloween—or give them away as gifts!
Got any fun plans for Halloween projects? We’d love to hear about them!
