For this, I made a small template with all the sides of the box. Then, I will insert the pumpkin, ungroup it, and select only the inside to set it for cutting. Finally, I will place it on one of the sides and subtract it to create the pumpkin light shape.

For this, I used Xtool basswood and would recommend it, or maybe an orange acrylic if you really want it to look like a pumpkin.

Now you will need to glue the pieces together, and you should be done. Just make sure the smaller pieces are on opposite sides, like in the photo above.
