OCC and Unity Inspirational Blog Hop!


Good Saturday Morning!!!! I combined the OCC Challenge with the Unity Inspirational Blog Hop! Over 200 stampers are estimated to be participating in the swap this weekend! Can you believe it. The Challenge over at OCC hosted by our very own Kim Teasdale was to use Bashful Blue, Night of Navy and More Mustard! Head on over to OCC to see the gorgeous Creations! All the cards look so different based on the ratio of colours!

I got my yummy Unity Stamps kit of the Month for March this week just in time to play! There was also a sweet surprise inside: these gorgeous Rub ons from Cosmo Cricut!!!




Okay, the deets on the Blog Hop! The Hop Starts at 11 a.m. Central Standard Time!
"View the Inspirational Blog Hop by starting at http://theunitystampco.blogspot.com/"

If you are mid hop, Please move along to Sarah's Blog.

and my favourite Quote is Plain and Simple, but soo soo effective: " A closed mouth gathers no feet"..........kind of the think before you speak principle......works for me during those times that I need to "bite my tongue"

Happy Hopping!!!

    Your card reminds me of 'The Partridge Family'. But then that is showing my age. So I didn't say anything about that family. What family?!?... ; ) Cathy

    I simply cannot be tempted into buying yet another set of stamps! But, the temptation is oh so great. I've seen so many wonderful cards made with Unity stamps. Yours is top of the list, my friend. Wonderful colors and theme.

    I just took a leisurely stroll through your latest posts (I'm behind again), and loved them all... especially that new Cutie Patootie from Pink Cat Studio. Yikes, is that baby ever cute... and such fun accessories. You've done him/her justice in all your cards! Adorable!

    I agree with your quote, and need to keep that one in mind more than I care to admit! LOL

    Hugs,
    Lisa
