#APaperPumpkinThing
Welcome to our monthly “A Paper Pumpkin Thing” blog hop! See what I have to share. Then check out all the other blogs in the hop to see additional creative alternate paper crafting project ideas that we each came up with using the contents of the January 2020 I’ll Bee Yours Paper Pumpkin kit. To follow the hop and see other creative project ideas, simply scroll down and click on the names of other hop participants.
Here is a photo of the intended projects from this month’s kit: 20 treat bags + 10 mini 3×3 cards and envelopes
I’ve already shared a few other alternate projects using the contents of this kit on January 23rd.
- Two alternate full-size cards
- And several treat containers

Today I have for you a super fun see-through shaker card! I’m so excited and hope that many of you give this a try. It was complicated enough because of the multiple steps, so I shared how to make this in my last Facebook Live. I then uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. (If you ARE on Facebook, I invite you to “like” then “follow” my page so you can get updates when I share and when I go live. My next FB Live will be on Wednesday, February 5 at 11 AM Central Time. Hope you can join me!) Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for the shaker card that I demonstrated.

Hello. Beautiful card
Thanks Patricia!
Cute shaker card! Love the bees!
Thanks so much Elizabeth. ?
Absolutely adorable!! Thanks for the video.
Thanks so much Candy!
I’ve been out of sorts, and haven’t been reading my emails. If I had, I would have invited you and your son over for dinner, or met you at the parks. I live 12 miles from Epcot! I just had to tell yiou, I love Jennifer as well. As she has so many great ideas, like you! I absolutely LOVE this card! So much fun for everyone. I have a teacher next door to me, 2nd graders, UI was going to make each one a card of their own, some of these kids are homeless. But, after watching this video, I decided to make one for the whole class to share. I don’t honestly think I can make 85 of these with my kit. Thank you for sharing, I’ll share your video, as well!
Oh how sweet of you Gloria. Thank you! We only had a bus for transportation with our middle school group, though. We wouldn’t have made it there. Glad you like this card idea! Yes, 85 would’ve taken so time AND way more supplies. ?
