Happy Thanksgiving

We're getting ready for the big day here in our household. I've done the grocery shopping, prepared lists and have made some cute pumpkins. I saw the idea on Aly Dosdall's blog - Scrap Your Story.

Thanksgiving Pumpkins

I used a bunch of different scraps of orange paper to make the 4", 5" & 6" circles, green cardstock hand cut for the leaves and a brown grocery bag for the stems.

I think they look really cute next to the nutcracker I bought on clearance at the end of last year. Love that little guy and I'm so glad I finally get to use him. He sat in a box at the top of my closet all year long just waiting to come out!

    These are SOOOO cute! Love the nutcracker too, he has lots of character! :) Thanks for your comment on my favor boxes. Sorry to hear that the link wasn't working - I've added some clarification that might make it work (it seems to work for me). If you can't get them to download and you want me to email you the file, just pm me (scrappydeb) on the pti forum with your email addy, and I'll be happy to send it to you! :)

    Very cute. How did you get the stems to stay on? I'm looking at making these for a church youth activity. Thanks!
