SUPPLIES & TOOLS:

  • Large Funkin Pumpkin
  • X-Acto knife
  • Medium weight sandpaper
  • Cricut machine
  • Green cutting mat

  • SVG files download

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Download files by clicking GET PATTERNS.
  2. Cut a large opening at the front of the Funkin using your X-Acto knife. Sand the edges smooth if needed. Measure the opening and adjust the files on the Cricut machine if needed.
  3. Cut each layer from color cardstock of choice. The example above has hills and roads in shades of gray, trees cut from different black textures, and a purple and yellow haunted house.
  4. Assemble the theatre, working from the back to the front. The front trees will cover the edges of the back papers. A trial run can help confirm the final placement. Assemble first before gluing them together. Use the foam sticky blocks to place between layers to make the layers more dimensional. Place the floral moss in the bottom of the Funkin to hide where the paper meets the bottom inside edge of the pumpkin.
