You'll need
Directions
- Open the cut file in Design Space and resize the words so they fit on your pumpkins.
- Flip the image horizontally (or mirror the mat) so the vinyl will be oriented correctly.
- Cut the design from black heat transfer vinyl using your cutting machine.
- Weed away the excess vinyl, then separate each word. Position a word on the front of a pumpkin and use a Mini Press to bond the vinyl to the surface.
- Remove the stems from the pumpkins for 'or' and 'treat.' Hot glue those pumpkins together, stacking them securely.
- Tie a bow from buffalo check ribbon around the stem of the top pumpkin.
