CupCards To Go

Take a peek at our Valentine kit and more...

Happy New Year Friends! ♥

I'm happy to share with you our 2016 Valentine Kit! It's full of some special colors this year, one being grey. I am loving grey as my new favorite neutral color. Seems like it matches everything! I even added a splash of aqua to mix with the reds and pinks. You can see the entire kit, close up photos, kit contents and purchase your kit here in the shoppe. Don't forget to take a peek at the embellie addon...it's pretty cute and includes some stickers, a stamp and an ink pad. :)

There's more tho...we decided to offer up our handmade cards this year for purchase. The fabulous Kristii and I designed with the kit this time and all of our designs are for sale in the shop.

And if that wasn't enough....I put last years kit in the shop ON SALE! I only have a handful left so if you want one now is the time to get it while it's 25% off.

Kits will begin shipping on Sat., Jan 9th.

I will have more one-time-only kits coming up during the next couple of months while I am going through inventory. So keep an eye on your emails and over on the fb page.

Product Spotlight - Teeny Tiny Alphas

Good Morning Friends!!!  Kristii here with a Product Spotlight from the beautiful CupCards to Go Admirer Valentine Kit.  Today I thought it would be fun to highlight the sweet little  KaiserCraft teeny tiny alphas that are found in the kit.  The teeny tiny alphas are so cute and sweet and they are as their name desicribes- teeny tiny!!  I absolutely love them!! They are perfect to add a word or two to a pre-printed sentiment as Elizabeth did in her beautiful Valentine card.

I  also used the alphas to add to a pre-printed sentiment and I also layered them onto another element, in this case one of the cute little arrows in the kit.

There are so many possibilities for these sweet little alphas and I can't wait to see what you create with them. Please post your creations to our Flickr or our Facebook fan page as I am looking forward to featuring some of your awesome work on the CupCards to Go Blog!!

Thanks for stopping by and I wish you a very Creative day!!

Envelope Inspiration with Lindsay

Hi!  Lindsay with you today, sharing some fun inspiration using the February kit, Admirer.  I don't know about you, but this kit made me quite giddy!  It is FULL of paper crafting goodness, and there are plenty of supplies to create a lot of projects. Today, I wanted to focus on envelopes!  Whether you are sending a card in the mail or hand delivering your lovely creation, you will likely use an envelope.  Why leave these plain!  Let's see some ways that you can embellish them.  Here are just a few creative ideas for you, when decorating your envelopes.

Die cut sticker sheets are a quick and easy way to add coordinating details to any envelope.  I started by creating mine using one of the 6x6 patterned paper sheet that came in the kit.  If you don't have something like the We R Memory Keepers punch board, you can always use the template included on the back of the Martha Stewart scoring board.  If that isn't an option, go with a pre made version, and decorate it anyway you want!

I encourage you to search the web, and especially Pinterest for more ideas on ways to decorate your envelopes.  It is super easy, and really fun to coordinate your pretty card with a pretty envelope.  Your recipient will love it!

Here is a look at the envies all together.

Thank you for joining me today, and as always, we want to see what you create using the kit!  Stop on by Flickr and share it with us!

"Think Outside The Card"

Happy Love Day CC2G Friends!

We have one last post to inspire you to "think outside of the card". Two of are amazing and talented design team members  created an alterable item and goodie treat box. Check 'em out!

Tiff not only created a beautiful card but she made an accompanying flower arrangement as well. I'm loving how she outlined the edges of the circles with the stickles.

Danni created two stunning treat holders with delicious candy to boot. I'm lovin' how she layered the butterflies and adhered them to the hearts.

Get inspired and happy crafting!

Meet Our Valentine Kit Guest Designer

Give a warm welcome to our Valentine Kit

Guest Designer Jennifer Koss 

 

1.  Tell us a little about yourself. 

I am a mom of 2 active boys and have been married to my supportive hubby for 13 years. Art has been a part of my life as long as I can remember. I have been paper crafting for about 12 years. 

2. Where do you find your inspiration?

I find inspiration everywhere. Mostly my boys and from trends I see around me. 

3. What is your favorite dessert?

mmmm....dessert. If I had to pick a favorite it would be Texas sheet cake. 

4. If you could do anything without any consequences, what would it be?

This is a tough question. I think it would be fun to go on a shopping spree where I could buy anything without the consequence of spending the money. 

5. Three words that best describe your personality. 

Enthusiastic, Friendly, Dependable

We also asked Jenn to share her space with us. I just love being inspired by others crafty spaces. 

And here are a few of Jennifer's designs this month.
