My Day With Unity Girls! - Hop

It's time for a Unity Hop! Aren't Thursdays the best? I have a Unity scrapbook layout to share today instead of a card. It's an extra special layout because it's from that amazing time I met the fabulous Lisa Arana and Kris Lancaster in person!!


While I was visiting my family in Phoenix over the holidays, I made sure to arrange a REAL LIFE meet up with these two other Arizonan Unity girls! We spent many hours chatting over many beers and too many chips. I wanted the layout to mimic the bright colors from the restaurant we visited.


We wore our Unity Hats and Unity Hoodies, obviously :) These ladies are even better in person! I was so glad to meet them and we're sure to get together again in the future (that's why I chose the To Be Continued title for this page).



I used these SMAK kits from December 2014 and January 2015 to stamp up the background of the layout. I stamped in shades of blue and yellow and a little bit of grey.


This sentiment is also from the SMAK kit. It's perfect for this crafty community... life is more beautiful when we are together!


It's time to SHOP the SALE at Unity! There's a nice garage sale on you will not want to miss :)


We have TWO amazing Unity filled prize packages to giveaway.  Leave a comment on EACH blog in the hop (including the Unity blog) for your chance to win.  The winners will be announced Monday night on the Unity blog.

 Now hop over to the amazing STEPHANIE 

 Love,
Rachel
