TCP September Paper Piecing

The Cat's Pajama's September challenge is paper piecing.  I do so love to paper piece, especially love to paper piece TCP images.  My favorite images to piece are the bun buns.  It's the ears.  There's something about those ears.  I don't think there's a TCP fan out there who isn't taken by those ears the EsOD (ears of death) as they are affectionately known.  Since I often piece Bun Bun i decided it was time to do something different for the challenge, but what?  I pulled out all my TCP stamps and browsed through them.  That's actually a fun activity for me, and I do that every so often just for yucks and jollies, yeah, I know I'm a little weird but that's not news to me or to most people who know me.  As I browse I sort the sets into piles, they're in an ever changing order but every sort has a pile of the ones I'm thinking I might use for my next card.  During this sort I ended up with 5 stamps that I would have liked to use.  So I sat and looked at them for awhile longer and attempted to make a decision.  Well, decisions are a funny thing for me.  Some days when I have to make them, I can do it with pause then there's day that making a decision is just not going to happen.  This was one of them, and on this kind of day I resort to eenie, meanie, minie, moe...and my mother told me that the penguins on the pumpkin were the very best one.  So that's how I decided to make this card.
It's obvious that the pumpkins have been pieced but what you probably can't tell is that even the penguins have been pieced.   Even though they're just black and white they've been cut out and pasted over (and in some spots under) the original stamped image.  Yes,sometimes for reasons beyond my understanding I can  get a bit nuts about this stuff but you probably already knew that.
