Steps to Make This:
- Start by using the Jack-o-lantern face die-cut to cut out from Grafix White Cling Film.
- Also die-cut leaf designs from the Cling Film.
- Online find a pumpkin outline image that you like.
- Then copy and paste the design into a Word document.
- Adjust the image size to approximately 5 ½” wide.
- Alongside the pumpkin, insert a text box and type in some Halloween or Fall theme words. (You can also skip adding in the theme words for a simpler look).
- Adjust the size and font of the words to fit on the leaves.
- Print the pumpkin and words out on Adhesive-Backed Computer Grafix Film.
- Cut a piece of the Cling Film a bit larger than the pumpkin.
- Ink the Cling Film using Khaki Ink applied with Stylus and Tip.
- Lay an art screen over Cling Film and ink with orange ink.
- Reposition the screen and re-ink, keep moving the screen and inking until most of the Cling Film is covered with the pattern.
- Remove the screen, lightly ink over the entire piece with orange ink, and let dry.
- Remove the backing from the pumpkin and lay over the inked Cling Film.
- Fill in the stem with a brown pen. Then use the yellow and brown pens to fill in leaves.
- To add shading, add a line with an orange pen down the creases in the pumpkin and smudge with your finger.
- Cut out the pumpkin.
- Ink the jack-o-lantern face with the black ink using Stylus & Tip.
- Outline the pieces using a black pen.
- Remove the backing from the jack-o-lantern pieces and apply them to the pumpkin.
- For the leaves, add a combination of orange, yellow, brown and red marker and smudge colors as added to the blend.
- Outline the leaves in a Metallic marker.
- Cut out the Halloween words, peel off the backing, and adhere to the several leaves.
- Remove the backing from the pumpkin and then you are ready to decorate.
- Arrange and apply the pieces to mirrors, glass, soap dispensers, doors, refrigerators, or any other non-porous surface.
