Season of Thanks

Paper Pumpkin has arrived, and I just love the kit for October!  Shaker Cards!! How fun is that!!!
I hold a Paper Pumpkin Work Night - really it is not work at all, just fun! The third Thursday of the month I designate for anyone who is either on my team and subscribes to Paper Pumpkin or anyone who is a subscriber under me can come, free of charge.

 Patty worked on 2 previous Paper Pumpkin Kits and was thrilled with her progress

I started out by sponging the punched out leaves with Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Pear Pizzazz and Cherry Cobbler, then I saw this idea on the Paper Pumpkin Fan Club Facebook Page by Melanie and loved it! In fact, I loved it so much I decided to make all my cards the same.  I changed it up a bit by pulling out a retired Happy Thanksgiving stamp from my stash called HOLIDAYS & WISHES. Perhaps you have this set too, or a favorite "Happy Thanksgiving" stamp. Maybe you don't want your card to be a Thanksgiving card.  You can always use the wonderful stamps that come in your kit. - or even make it a great fall themed birthday card or "thinking of you" card.

Can you see the difference in these next 2 cards?

Yup, I forgot to stamp and adhere the colored squares behind my cut out leaves. It really does make a difference.

And look how great these cards coordinate with the treat containers I made.  I decided to give a card and a treat to our new neighbors at Thanksgiving time.  It is hard to see the little sequins when the card is standing up, but I can't help but think how much fun all our neighbor's little kids will love shaking these cards and seeing them sparkle.

I love it when things "fall" together like this.
