Baggin' it and Taggin' it on "BLACK WEDNESDAY" with HUGE news...

INHALE.
{exhale.}
REPEAT.

ARE.

READY????

We are "Hip Hoppin'" into Thanksgiving here at UNITY with a SPECIAL WEDNESDAY POST,
HUGE "BLACK WEDNESDAY SALE", and the release 
of SIX NEW STAMP SETS in a new CO-BRANDED LINE by
BELLA BOULEVARD!!!

Bella Blvd. just so happens to be one of my favorite paper co's in the universe and is now working w/ Unity to bring you SIX NEW SETS.
TODAY!!!!

Here's the one I used:

For this week's Hip Hop theme we are "BAGGIN' it and TAGGIN' it" which is a GREAT theme to show you how to throw together simple hostess and/or holiday gifts at the last minute!   Here is my project using the new Bella Fiori set:

I decorated a cute Bakery Bag from Taylored Expressions with some BELLA BLVD DP and stamped the big flower from this set all over the bag.  I filled it up w/ some cute gumballs and added a SUPER simple tag using the Bella Fiori set as well :)  Such a quick and cute gift for anyone-and really any time of year.

I didn't want to stop there so I made a quick card to go with:

Be sure to stop over at the UNITY BLOG to get the latest lowdown on ALL the sales and happenings today, and when I tell you "all", I am NOT. KIDDING.

TONS and TONS of good stuff going on today!
Next Blog

For now, head over to my sweet friend JIMMI's blog to see what she's baggin' and taggin'...and check out the AMAZING sale Unity is having...RIGHT NOW...and this is JUST the beginnings of it!

One more thing I want to mention, because I think it's important.  TO BE GRATEFUL.  And because I am SO. So. Grateful to be a part of UNITY:

For every sale from this HUGE event, 50 cents will be donated to the local FOODSHELF program.  Did you know that $1 donation will buy up to NINE dollars of groceries for families in need this holiday season?  Yep, 50 cents for EVERY. SALE.

Now THAT is something I am grateful for.  I was writing Angela tonight telling her that for all the holiday spirit that I love, there is always a little part of me this time of year that is unspeakably sad for the people who aren't as fortunate as we are, so I love this.  Does my heart SO much good <3

Well, this was a LOOONG post so if you are still with me, THANK YOU.  I am VERY, VERY grateful for all of you and your support, too :)

Have a WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING, everyone!
