I loved creating the October Stampin' Up! Paper Pumpkin Shaker Card kits!! What a great kit!! I also loved embellishing them with some die cut pinecones from the Pretty Pines thinlit die selection, new in the 2016 Holiday catalog from Stampin' Up! Find them on page 19 in the holiday catalog, or HERE in my online store.
Shaker cards are difficult to photograph because you can't see them "shake" 🙂 and the window sheets have a lot of glare, but I hope you enjoy these ideas! In addition to creating the cards the way the instructions in the kit suggest, I also used Pumpkin Pie Glimmer paper, Gold Glimmer paper and Gold Foil paper behind the leaf die cut shapes, just for some fun interest!
Below, my shaker card version with Pumpkin Pie Glimmer paper behind the leaf die cut shapes.. so pretty!! I also embellished all of my Paper Pumpkin cards with pinecone die cut shapes.
After I punched out the leaf shapes on the cards, I used a sponge brayer to color them various fall colors and added them to the front of my cards.

Below.. my 2 "alternate" card ideas using the Paper Pumpkin supplies and some paper from my Warmth & Cheer Paper Stack!
I added some Gold Wink of Stella to the die cut pinecones to make them a little glitzy.
