UPDATE: Made him a lid. Ha! Used the Hitch Fastener for a stem.
I live in the city that claims to be the "Pumpkin Capitol of the World" because the Libby plant that cans pumpkin is here.

Sooooo, we see a lot of pumpkins.
They're everywhere...in the windows, on the street corners, on flags, on the water tower, even the soccer balls at the weekend tournament were....you guessed it....PUMPKINS. Orange soccer balls with jack-o-lantern faces.
So it is fitting that I would be drawn to making the little orange blob out of Grungeboard and paper. A little battery powered tea light sits inside. Kinda cute.

The leaf is of course, Appletini Green Ten Seconds Studio metal run through the Cuttlebug. The curly stuff is GrungePaper.
My fingers have the look of a 4 pack a day smoker. Camels probably.
It will wear off eventually.
Happy Autumn....the pumpkins are here. Oh, and the whole town smells like pumpkins...and that's not like pumpkin pie!
Be well.

I LOVE this pumpkin!
I wandered over to your blog. Found you on the 2009 One World One Heart Giveaway site. After watching the movie Julie and Julia recently, I've decided to try and go through the ENTIRE OWOH list, from beginning to end, in 90 days and connect/reconnect with all the artists and blogs that truly inspire me! Your blog is amazing and really resonated with me!
A bit about me. I'm a mystery writer, jewelry artist, and college professor. Yes, and a Gemini, if you couldn't tell! Here is my blog, where I blend my mystery writing and jewelry craft:

Take care and as Julia Child might say, "Bon Blogging!"

How cute is this pumpkin!!! Halloween doesn't make a big splash down here in Australia so we don't do the whole carving pumpkin thing but I DO love pumpkin pie!!! lol
Love the pumpkin!!!! How did you do it? Did you use a pattern or just freehand a pumpkin. Love it but then again Fall is my favorite time of year!
Kim,
I drew the idea on paper and worked around a few problems before I cut it out on the GB.
