What sort of pumpkin are you carving? I was going to get the biggest, roundest pumpkin I could find, poke two little holes in it and write "I'm Bob Ford, bitch" on it....
.... However I wussed out and made a scary skeleton pumpkin instead.

Let's have some snaps too. I'll post mine tomorrow.

No not us but I am very impressed that you can get those pumpkin carving kits and stencils.

Didn't even know about them until this week when sis in law was doing some. Til that point I thought people were just incredibly clever lol

These are the pumpkins we carved last year x

I will post pics of this years when I upload the pics x

I can't tell what the last one is - did it go wrong??

No hun the last one is a pic of the second one unlit, admittedley it doesen't look that clear on here lol x

We're not having Halloween this year, it upset the dog, so no pumpkin carving in our house

Here are ours. I'm really pleased with the way Frankenstein's Monster turned out. It's the first time I've tried one with a lot of two-tone shadow; it involved peeling the skin off and leaving the flesh so that the light shines through a bit. Had a great template for that one.

I then tried to freehand the same effect with the wolf/moon thing from a picture of somebody else's pumpkin. The hangman's tree was my son's design, modified a bit so it would actually work without collapsing on itself.

The ann m family efforts this evening:
