Last Saturday when I was over at Katy's I stamped a BUNCH of images from her different Unity sets - we had fun swapping sets and images!!! I LOVE this sentiment! It is from the October Kit of the Month. If Angela (the genius behind Unity and all around awesome gal) ever makes it into a large sentiment I will be first in line! I KNEW I had to use my new MUSIC cuttlebug embossing folder with this sentiment! I ran it through on Kiwi Kiss and then sponged some Black ink on it to make it stand out more. I punched the sentiment out using my blue marvy oval punch and then sponged the edges with Basic Black ink. I then matted it on a Baja Breeze piece that I punched out using my purple marvy scalloped oval punch. I then paper pierced around the oval and then did a little design in each one of the scallops three around the edge and one in the middle. I then added the black layered flower, it's from doodlebug that I still had in my stash. The rhinestone brad in the center added some bling and matched really well! I thought it still needed something so I added the black organza ribbon (of course you know I can barely make a card without ribbon!) Tied a nice little bow and viola! Did you notice I FINALLY used some of this year's IN colors? I needed a color scheme and so I went with this weeks SCS color challenge only I thought it was Basic Black but it was really Basic Grey. I am still not crazy about them!
Here is a close up of the sentiment

and my paper piercing.

If you didn't check out hip hop yesterday you simply MUST go visit the Unity BLOG today and check out all the specials Angela has for us! There are some sets that are retiring and 50% off specials!!! Apparently Angela and the unity gang have some BIG changes planned for 2009. From what I have seen of Unity I can say with certainty that I am sure they will be nothing
