Hugs and Kisses
























Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr she is cold and a snowing out...and to my dismay we are suppose to get 4-5 more inches tonight.   Sounds like a good time to be snug like a bug inside my house...and that is just what I am doing.   It is that wonderful time of the month to introduce the new Cupcards To Go Kit with the most perfect name for Valentines and all things lovey dovey...HUGS and KISSES.   I have been busy creating with this kit...each time I find some other sweet little tid bit...it is full of fun toppings and has the new BASIC GREY KISSING BOOTH.   Which is absolutely gorgeous.   You will have soooo much fun making cards with this kit for someone extra special...I promise!  My first project was one of our challenges which was to do something special with the red heart doilies and to also spiff up the envelopes.  So I took one of the envelopes and layered the heart doilies and stitched them to create a pocket and then adhered them to the envelope.  I used one of the card bases and cut it in half to create two mini cards and than had fun using the toppings from the kit to embellish the front of the envelope and the cards....I tucked them inside with a few candy treats and they are now ready for someone.  They other cards came together easily..I used the wrapped wire ribbons to create hearts with a bit of hot glue.  You also get a bottle of pink stickled which I had fun using as accents here and there and also to covere my  mini clothespins for a bit of sparkle. 
                  Well hope I have helped to inspire you ...make sure to pay a visit to the Cupcards gallery for more valentine inspiration from the other gals.   Since I have been mostly stuck inside I have been making a new home for my crafts...I have switched rooms and am soo excited to share with you soon!  hugs to you all, cherry

Oh my! You truly never do cease to amaze and inspire me! I've been a fan, blog stalker and pinner of your cards for a long time, and finally had to come out of the shadows and tell you ... you are definitely one of my card making heroes! Thank you so much for inspiring me to make better cards! Becky G.

I would love to learn how to make your bows - would you ever consider an online tutorial with instructions or link to something on youtube? I also wondered how you get your fab cards into envelopes, too. I hope you'll reply. You are so talented! Thanks!
