Get ready for Halloween this year with this 3D Paper Pumpkin, the perfect addition to you’re Halloween decorations. 

Get your supplies!

You will need:

  • Create It Art Pad A4 FSC Mix - Colourfun

  • Micador jR. Mega Markers

  • Micador Sizzle Scissors

  • String

  • Graphite pencil

  • Glue Stick

  • Ruler

Step 1: Rules lines and cut!

Using two pieces of orange coloured paper from the Micador Create It Art Pad, measure out 8 strips of paper that are 4cm wide and span the length of the A4 sheet. For the stalk of the pumpkin rule out a small green rectangle. Cut strips out.

Step 2: Draw a spooky face!

Time to add some creepy jack-o'-lantern faces! Across two of the orange strips, use a Mega Marker to draw triangles for eyes, and a zig-zag line for a mouth.

Step 3: Piece together your masterpiece!

Glue together the ends of the strips to form the bottom of the pumpkin. Whilst attaching each piece together, ensure they fan out equally. Similarly, glue the alternate ends of the strips together to form the top of the pumpkin.

Step 4: Final touches!

Make small folds at either end of the green rectangle. Glue and attach these folds to the top of the pumpkin to act as the stalk. Place a small piece of string through the loop of the stalk so the jack-o'-lantern is ready to be hung.
