Leo the Lion

To date this has to be my single favourite pumpkin I have ever done.  It took a few nights of work but I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.  I have included the image and stencil that I created, as well as what the pumpkin looks like before I start any carving.  Hope you enjoy this one as much as I do!

Frankenstein – Boo!

We’ve had a few dark and stormy nights around here lately. What better time to carve a monster of a pumpkin. I wouldn’t like to see this guy in the dark!

*Useful tip for lighting big pumpkins, raise the candles. I have 4 candles inside this pumpkin to give it enough light all at different levels.
