I took some construction paper Jr. had cut shapes out of and tore them up into small pieces put those pieces into boiling water to soften them then put the hot goop (which was in this case orange) into the Magic Bullet/ Bella Cucina and blended it furiously making a smoother gooier paste and after this cooled (because cooked seeds won't sprout) I squeezed fresh tomato seeds into (because if it is dry seeds I fear it may cause them to sprout). I then took this goop on to the porch where I had window screen layed out for this purpose and spread the goop into different shapes. I made a card shape, some leaf shapes and some round shapes to make pumpkins out of later, these will later become fall greeting cards that a person can plant in the spring. (In theory anyway.) It is sort of lumpy and thick but I think as the water evaporates they will get lighter and maybe thinner, I suppose if it stays fluffy it is ok too, I will let you know later how it turns out... here are some pictures of how it looks so far:

it sort of looks like a hamburger patty but they are not that thick.
here are the different shapes I made.
