Now we are back to the stencil. This is the most frustrating and time consuming part.
The stencil should be cut and ready and your pumpkin should be ready for carving.
1. Tape the stencil to the pumpkin.
--This is frustrating because the stencil wont lay flat, you have to bend certain areas so it will lay flat, but do so without manipulating the design. You might have to tape it a few different times. I know I get really really frustrated and end up free handing it once I take the stencil off.
2. trace the stencil with a sharpie.
---Make sure you are careful not to mess up the design too much, you are going to lose definition and the whole thing will be a bit fatter.
***when you look at the stencil once it is traced it looks really confusing which is why we do the next step...be hopeful it it looks overwhelmingly hard***
3. fill in where you are going to cut out so you don't get confused
Now you are ready to start cutting! YIPPY!!!!
