CupCards {to go}

I can't think of a better way to dust off this blog (eh.....I'm a slow blogger, what can I say?), than to share my latest discovery: CupCards {to go} http://www.cupcardstogo.typepad.com/ .
Ok ok.....I discovered this several months ago, but I got a little busy with life. This site is owned by Cassonda Tadlock http://sondat.typepad.com/ , who is a wickedly talented scrapper, designer, artist, paper-crafter.....well, you get the idea (plus she's really friendly and sweet, too!). Sonda puts together monthly card kits with lots of scrappy goodness. I received the July 2009 kit, my first, in today's mail. It is so scrumptious!


Check out these goodies:




And check out the detail. I love the embossed cardstock, the lacy trim, and those pins and buttons.....so cute!
Now I must say that one item pictured here was not included in the kit. I won the darling Studio G stamp set by participating in the July sneak peek CupCards {to go} blog hop. I had a lot of fun hopping from one design team member's blog to the next.
Now comes the fun part.....deciding how to put my cards together. I can lift some ideas from the designers, or create my own. Hmmmm, probably a little from column A, and a little from column B.
