15 Minute Stamped Pumpkins

Fall is my favorite season, but living in Florida makes it difficult to enjoy, so I have to create my own Fall with Faux Quilted Pumpkins!

I recently had a bunch of random wooden pieces sitting on my work table and I thought that these blocks were the same size as Ann Butler Designs Background Basics stamps – and I was right – so I created these Faux Quilted Pumpkins!

I LOVE it when a design comes together.

Here’s how to make it:

1.) Base coat larger block with Americana Paint by DecoArt Orange Twist and smaller block Tangelo Orange, let dry.  Apply a second coat, if necessary.

2.) Load Colorbox® Background Basics Stamps by Ann Butler – Diamond and Picnic with Ann Butler Crafter’s® Ink by Clearsnap – Tangelo and stamp on four sides and top of each block.  Use a heat tool to set ink, which will make stamping quicker.

Place a medium side craft cork on the end of the piercing tool and roll on Ann Butler Crafter’s® Ink by Clearsnap – Bark ink pad to create the pumpkin stem.  Repeat with small craft cork.  Attach to top of Pumpkins with Beacon Premium Tacky Glue.

Load  Colorbox® Background Basics Stamps by Ann Butler – Basket with Ann Butler Crafter’s® Ink by Clearsnap – Evergreen and stamp on lime green cardstock, let dry.  Cut out two leaf patterns.  Fold in half and attach to Top of Pumpkin with  Beacon Premium Tacky Glue.  Tie a bow around each Pumpkin stem with twine.

Quick and easy to make, these Faux Quilted Pumpkins were created in just 15 minutes, so make a whole PUMPKIN PATCH to display in your own home or give as gifts!  These would also make a great place card for Thanksgiving dinner.
