I adore the Snail Mail Game Show. I love getting submissions from all over where creative people respond to the same prompt in completely different ways! For Round 6, all the participants received a paper with the outline of a pumpkin and were instructed to decorate it however they wanted. The only rule is it had to reach me via snail mail! Want more info? Check out the info page!

Caitlin calls this one “Flower Power” and I think that’s a perfect name for her colorful masterpiece.

Olivia was inspired by sugar skulls and I think we should probably start decorating all pumpkins this way.
