I promised to share the other 2 seasonal themed cards using the same layout, format and masking technique, which came out of musings during my card class earlier this week.
This time we have Autumn and Winter plus a bonus for a Christmas theme!

Sassy Seasons……………
It is a while since I last posted news on my blog. Those of you who know me or have been following me for a while know that I work for one of the biggest retail tax preparation services in the US – and Jan 1st thru April 18th this year I have been helping the nation prepare and file their 2015 tax returns!!!
While I had time to write posts I did not have time to make anything to share with you on a regular basis – but now I am back with some cards and other paper projects to share……. I hope you enjoy them – feel free to comment.
Time to Say Goodbye…………………..

Shoe Box Swap # 5 ~ Hearts and Home Thinlit Dies
This card uses the very popular Hearth and Home Thinlits Dies which gives us a cozy view from a window at the hills and lake beyond. It also continues my theme of digging into my stash of Designer series paper, this time the Love Blossoms DSP Paper stack which I used a lot for my valentine projects but works very well for this card.

Happy Easter ~ to all my lovely readers!
This is a perfect card to celebrate Easter – light and joyful colors and the cutest little spring lamb giving us a cheeky look. This is another card from the Shoe Box swap from last month – I saved sharing it until today…. and it is using more from the DSP stash!!
Shoe Box Swap # 2 ~ Stampin’ Up
Continuing my theme of using Designer series paper, here is another card from the shoe box swap, it features one of the designs from the ‘Cherry on the Top’ Paper stack – a very handy 6 x 6 pack that gives you 4 sheets of 12 double sided designs in lovely bright colors.
Shoe Box Swap ~ Stampin’ Up
Late last month I was invited to a shoe box swap – never done one before and was not at all sure what I had committed to…….. but it sounded interesting and as it turned out I had a great time.
Each person who joins the swap designs a card and prepares supplies for everyone ~ 15 in this case! – we then make up the cards and leave with lots of different cards and ideas. It was fun but making 15 cards in about 2 hours was a challenge!
Break out your DSP! ~ Stampin’ Up
This is a very quick card to make – and I just love its simplicity, all the detail is in the decorative designer series paper and this time I have chosen to use the exclusive DSP from the Sale-a-bration catalog – which is FREE with a $50 order ~ that is until March 31st and then it will be gone for good!!!
Designer Series Paper Share ~ Stampin Up Occasions Catalog
The first share is now ready to go to their new homes! This is the perfect way to get your hands on a little of all the DSP’s from the new 2016 Occasions catalog, without breaking the bank!
Over the next few days I will share some cards made using the DSP – it is there to be used ~ not hoarded!!!!!!
