Yikes, I just realized this was to be a Christmas ornament. Too much time on this one, so I'm posting it and will try another for Christmas. Stop the Challenge Police please - I worked hard on this!!!
First, I stamped my pumpkin on Shrink Paper and colored it with Sharpies. That's the little hanging pumpkin you see. Then, I stamped the same pumpkin on acrylic and colored it with Copics. Cut up some rafia for inside the ornament and tied the shrink pumpkin and ribbon to my ornament. It's already on my centerpiece.
Please forgive my oversight about Christmas and be kind!!! Mea cupa!

Vicky, this is gorgeous. I love the little shrink pumpkin, I was just thinking I need to get my shrink plastic out and you've inspired me to do something with it. And I see Joan has edited the challenge to include non-Christmas, too . That is one beautiful looking centrepiece with your ornament as its crowning glory.

Wow, that ornament is gorgeous, love the way you incorporated it into you fall arrangement. The idea is still fabulous for another way to make a Christmas ornament too.
