How to find FREE Pumpkin Stencils/Patterns

Halloween must be coming.  My visitor count is spiking.  Free Pumpkin Stencils/Patterns, Tinkerbell Pumpkin Stencil/Pattern, Transformers Pumpkin Stencil/Pattern, Scooby-doo Pumpkin Stencil/Pattern, (and variations in the wordings of those) are the most common incoming searches to my blog.

Its funny, because searching for free pumpkin stencils on the internet gets you free* pumpkin stencils or crappy pumpkin stencils (* crappy pumpkin stencils are free, but the one you want costs $3.95).

Order me for $3.95

Free on the internet (with free instructions too!)

Do these Tinkerbell pumpkin carvings look similar?  Both come up when you search google for "Tinkerbell Pumpkin Stencil".  One costs $3.95, one is free (with no asterisk).

Look familiar?

Finding FREE PUMPKIN PATTERNS is easy.  Search google for
"tinkerbell colouring pages" (note the 2nd result!!),
"transformers colouring pages"
"Scooby-doo colouring pages"
"Batman colouring pages"

You can find just about any themed pumpkin stencil you want by substituting "Pumpkin pattern" with "Colouring page" and doing a google image search.  Most of my pumpkin carvings have been done doing just that.
