Turn a photo of your dog or cat into a pumpkin carving stencil
Yes, you can carve your own pet. Upload a clear photo of your dog or cat, and the AI turns it into a black-and-white carving stencil in about 15 seconds. The preview is free and needs no signup; the full pack is $2.99 once, and the print page adds bridges so no piece of pumpkin falls out.
How it works
- Upload a photo of your dog or cat (JPEG, PNG or WebP). You can add a note, like “add a witch hat”.
- Pick a difficulty: Easy (big shapes, great with kids), Medium or Detailed.
- Get a free preview in about 15 seconds. No signup.
- Unlock the pack for $2.99 (one payment): the stencil without watermark, 3 variations and a glowing-pumpkin preview.
- Print the carving-ready version (or save it as PDF). Bridges are added automatically so no piece falls out.

Which photos work best
- Your pet looking at the camera, with the face and ears clearly visible.
- Good light and a plain background. One animal per photo.
- Breeds with a distinctive outline (bulldogs, dachshunds, pointy-eared cats) give the most recognizable stencils.
- Choose Easy for a bold outline, or Detailed to keep markings like tabby stripes.
Questions
Does it work for cats and other pets?
Yes. Dogs, cats, rabbits, horses and other animals all work. Photos of people are not supported.
Will my pet stencil be easy to carve?
Pick the Easy difficulty for a bold outline with few cuts. The pack adds 3 more variations, so you can choose the one that is easiest to carve, and the print page adds bridges so inner pieces like eyes do not fall out.
How much does it cost?
The preview is free (with a watermark). Unlocking the full pack costs $2.99 once for that design. There is no subscription.
What happens to my photo?
It is used only to make your stencil, never shown publicly, and deleted after 3 days if you do not unlock it (30 days if you do).
