A JoYfuL Hip HOP!

Oh I am sO happy to *see* you today! Hip Hop Thursdays are one of my favorite days of the week, I just love to hop around and check out all the rockstars awesome work, chat with the Unity Addicts on the chat thread, and see all the great deals that Angela has every Thursday!

Today we're focusing on the February KOM, Endings and Beginnings! This is one FAB-u-LOUS kit ya'll, if you only subscribe to one (which you won't, cause they're like Lay's Potato chips, can't have just one!) you GOTTA get this one! Deer, Mushrooms, Houndstooth, Eggs, Birds, this kit has it ALL! And for only 24.00! You can't beat that with a stick!

Here's my card using stamps from this kit:

OMG! I had WAY too much fun (okay, there really isn't any such thing!)with this card! The stamps really just kinda took on a life of their own, lol! The base is White and I also used the new color by PTI "Melon Berry"! This color is exactlyl the same as last years In color by SU! "Groovy Guava", love it! I stamped the LUSCIOUS Deco Hound background in Versamark and then clear embossed it. That yummy houndstooth frame? OMG. I'm going to MARRY IT! It's so fabulous and I'm going to use it on every card from here on out, lol! The sentiment is also from the kit!

In celebration of this release, we're all sharing 5 things that bring us joy!

1. My husband!

First and foremost this guy gives me SO much to be thankful for. He's a wonderful husband, he lets me buy whatever craziness I want for this wonderful hobby of mine and he doesn't ever say its too much, he is a great doggy-daddy, and he's just a really huge inspiration to me. I don't know how I ever make it when he's gone but now he's home and I have him around for awhile:) He's even watching American Idol with me right now, I mean COME ON! How awesome is he?:D

2. My dogs!

If you know me at all, you know that Luke and Jesse are the centers of my universe. Luke is my Yellow Lab and Jesse is my Chocolate Lab. They are absolutely my little kids and I love them to pieces! I come home for lunch every day just to be with them. They make me smile and they make me so happy, even on a bad day:)

3. STAMPING! I am CONSTANTLY thinking of stamping! I can't be the only one? Colors, things, layouts, I see them EvERYWHERE and I ALWAYS want to STAMP! I'm so thankful for this hobby and often wonder what I'd be doing with my time if I didn't stamp? Maybe be a little thinner caues I'd be working out, be closer to my college degree, I don't know, but I'm completely happy with where I'm at right now:)

4. Friends! I have many great friends and I count all of my cyber friends just as I do my "IRL" friends:) I love you all and can't wait for the day I can meet you:)

5. AMERICAN IDOL! Oh, I love this show:)

What are you thankful for? Let me know and I'll pick a random winner to receive a grab bag of Unity!!!!!!!!!! I'll leave it open for comments until Saturday night, Midnight CST!

Okay, I know you peeps are ready to hop along so hop on over to Sweet Laura's blog! Have a fantastic Thursday!
