Step 1
Start with the letter C and only the curvy part of the letter D, then use the letters A, B, C, and D to work your way up to the pumpkin’s outer edge.
Step 2
Make three arches connecting the top end points of the curved shapes (it’s fine if you only make two or more). Then connect them in a triangle shape to the bottom endpoints of the previous arches.
Step 3

Step 4
The eyes and nose are next, followed by the lips, cheeks, brows, and even the brows.
