After printing it, cut out the shape of your stencil with a sharp X-Acto knife. To attach it to your pumpkin, either use tape or stencil adhesive spray. Use a stencil brush to paint over the stencil and let it dry for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, you can cut the lid off the circular lid of the pumpkin and remove all the pulp from inside. Peel off the stencil and get to carving that pumpkin. Consider investing in a pumpkin carving kit to make the process smoother.
