Hip Hop is GROWING in LOVE...and in UNITY!...

Hello my awesome friends....

{thanks for scrolling down to see my CUTE as a BUG son and a SUPER quick layout you can do in FIVE minutes!  OH...and at the bottom of THIS post?  I might have a little BUG for you, too!}}}

This card is about as pink as I'm feeling on the inside today...it is ALL about friendship, growing in love, and growing in UNITY and I couldn't be MORE excited about some of the things to come...and the part that we can ALL PLAY in making that HAPPEN.

More on that VERY soon...but for today...START on the UNITY BLOG, and I'm your next stop!  Oh, and will you be joining us in a HIP HOPPIN' good time on the Unity FORUM!?!?  Perhaps join us in this FABULOUS Sketch Challenge??? (Thanks Maria!):

Isn't it awesome?  I had a GOOD TIME w/ this one.   This chipboard flower was calling my name and the sketch lent itself totally to it!  LOVE THAT!  Here's my bright lil' card:

Hope you guys like it!  The sentiment and hearts are from the JUNE KIT OF THE MONTH.   Has it been a while since you were a part of UNITY's kit club?  As always there are even MORE perks for coming back, and if you are already enjoying the stamps, be sure to nudge me and show me what your fave stamps are w/ the new kit!  I LOVE seeing you guys in action w/ UNITY!

We have so much chit chat and FUN to look fwd to today and in total/traditional UNITY fashion there are prizes and SUR-prizes, as always.

For now, my ever so sweet and talented friend Jimmi (who I get to hug in person in just a few weeks, I hope!!!) has some deliciousness for you on her blog today:
Next Blog

Thanks for sticking with me, for being SO excited about UNITY and for getting this party started today!  Chat with you guys SOON!

Oh...and LAST but not LEAST....speaking of BUGS as my post does below...and going w/ my flower/garden theme today...I have a LITTLE BUGS stamp set to give away today!  Just leave me a comment and I'll draw a winner and post tomorrow!  GOOD LUCK!!!!!
