20 No-Carve Pumpkin Ideas Using A Cricut

Throw out the pumpkin carving kits and grab your cutting machine to make these no-carve pumpkin ideas using your Cricut! You’ll get all of the cute and none of the mess with these creative Cricut pumpkin crafts!

I’ve never been a huge fan of carving pumpkins. By the time I scoop all the seeds and pumpkin guts out, I have no energy left to actually carve anything. Not to mention it’s messy, a bit smelly (a raw pumpkin isn’t exactly…fragrant), and I’m clumsy, even with a safety knife.

Then it seems like as soon as we carve our pumpkins and place them outside, they immediately start rotting. Great.

It always seems like a lot of work for little reward.

I’m really not a grinch though. I still LOVE using pumpkins in my Halloween decor and I love using my Cricut machine for everything under the sun!

So I went on the hunt for different ways I could decorate my pumpkins using my Cricut.

These no-carve Cricut pumpkin ideas are amazing! They are full of creativity and color. And best of all, they leave no mess!

Actually, best of all is that you can keep them out on your porch the whole month of October without them rotting away!

Check out these Cricut pumpkin ideas. You won’t have to worry about rotten pumpkins, pumpkin guts, or kids cutting themselves with a cheap pumpkin carving kit with these crafty ideas!
