"Happy Halloween" Pumpkin Pattern!
Every year we visit Justin's parents' around Halloween for his dad's birthday. And every year his mom asks me to carve a pumpkin. I usually stress out over picking a design, but this year I am prepared!
I decided to draw out my own design, which I had originally planned on just being decorative lettering. But I needed some way to create the holes for the "A"'s, "P"'s and so on, and the design got more & more complex.
I will be carving the pumpkin later today, but meanwhile, you can download the larger version for your own pumpkin here!
For the tiny lines on the spider, web, and skeleton, use a pointed tool to scratch a line into the surface, you don't have to go all the way through. (You can also do this for any details that are too tiny, like the skeleton eyes & nose) I put this together quickly, so the lines are a little rough, but fine for carving ;)
