3D Pumpkin 3

Great look for my fall decor

Once I cut out this file...I was certain I knew how to put it together. But my idea of using a brad to bring them all together, didn’t work! Then I used half of a pipe cleaner (taped/glued to the bottom) and it worked like a charm. I still use the stem provided but I suggest pushing the tabs inside and gluing the stem directly to the top of the pumpkin (or apple, if you go for red paper) Once I figured out a method that worked for me, they were super easy and look adorable in my tablescape. Cut out on an 8.5x8.5 piece of cardstock they are perfect for a place card by placing the name on the leaf. Enjoy!

The pumpkin body is one piece (like a flower) and each “petal” has a hole at the end that you put through something - like a brad. Well the brad didn’t work but half of a pipe cleaner did! Tape or glue it to the base on the inside (I did both) and thread each “petal” through, adding the leaf last (I put a little dab of glue between each “petal” then pushed it down a bit) I folded the tabs of the stem inside the stem making it hollow. Placed glue on edge and put over pipe cleaner (which may need to be trimmed down) Once I figured out an easy way to put it together—-I’ve made a bunch more. These are soooo cute!! Cut out on an 8.5x8.5” piece of paper...they fit in the palm of the hand
