I fell in love with these pumpkins made by WAXYO and Rachelhope13. After emailing those samples to friends, they asked me to come up with one for a Friday workshop, so here it is. Quick and simple, using one of my favorite sketches from the challenges this past summer.
Here are the links to the cards that were my inspiration and that got everyone here so excited about these pumpkins:
It really is fun to make things with these oval punches!!!
P.S. After looking at this on the screen for the last day, it just lacked something. I added just a short little orange swiss dotted organdy ribbon on the twine up at the knot, and it is amazing what a difference that makes -- it was the finishing touch it so desperately needed!!!

How fun! Great job on this pumpkin! Love it and will be "case-ing" it!!! I was just lamenting that I didn't have any pumpkin stamps to do cards for fall, I have plenty of leaves, but no pumpkins. But I do have the oval punches! Yay! Thanks for sharing!

Isn't it amazing how just one little thing can makes such a difference? Although I thought your card was already great. Love your oval punched pumpkin. I missed those cards, but now I will save your card and have the links too. Thank you so much, nancy
