[Contest] Pretty Pumpkins!
 

http://www.menewsha.com/img/37965/81...852191366a.png


I love Fall and everything about it. It's my favorite season. From crunchy leaves, cute costumes, wearing my favorite sweaters, and yes pumpkin spice EVERYTHING! Speaking of pumpkins, let's not forget the pumpkin carving and cool fall decorations that come out this time of year.

It's time for a contest!

They had a station set up at my school for decorating mini pumpkins, so I decided to make one :D
It's a black cat with glitter and stickers. Unfortunately I couldn't show off the entire black cat in one photo.
