An Awareness.....Pumpkin
I used a couple shades of pink vinyl and the Pink Journey cart to decorate this awareness pumpkin for my sister. The ribbon roses were a gift from my friend, T., and they are the perfect bed for a pretty crystal guardian angel sun catcher (who has light pink wings) that I added so my sister can pull it off and remember she's not alone in her fight long after the pumpkin has gone to that great pumpkin patch in the sky. I used a spray on acrylic sealer that I hope will help the vinyl make it through the month...even pumpkins get their bling on in my house. Thanks for visiting!

What a great idea and creation !!! Its the purrtiest pumpkin I have ever seen! I have never used vinyl, but I'm thinking I might need to give it a try. Love the roses on top!! I'm working on a project now and I'm using the lighter pink roses. I hope it turns out as pretty as your one of a kind pumpkin !!
