HELLO UNITY FWF PEEPS

WOW!! I can't believe how fast this week went. I had so many things I wanted to do this week and was only able to do just a few of them. That's ok...I'll have more fun things to do next week! LOL

You will want to start at Unity's Blog to see all the inspiring and creative MOJO list of stampers.

Unity's new Tooty Fruity Challenge went up on the 15th. So of course I had to get out some of my Fruit stamps, but only was able to finish one of the cards so far.

I used the Distressed Dots, Itty Bitty Bitty Flower Background, and July '10' KOTM for this card.



All Things Unity's Challenge is Stamps Not Used! I know a lot of us has stamps that are waiting to get a little Inky! We would love for you to play along with us.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy all the Inspiring Unity Eye Candy along the hop. Have a great and creative weekend!
