Unity Thursday 3-11-10

Good morning everyone!! Today, we're Rockin it Unity Style again!!!

Its been a very unseasonally wet year for us. This little rain girl is so perfect.



I tried using a cuttlebug folder to emboss while inked. I did not love the effect, but somehow, it looked a little "wet" to me, and so, I used it as a rainy sky in this card.

I hope you have a wonderful day today! enjoy your hop through everyone's blogs!
