FWF Embossed Ink Distressing

Happy Friday the 13th Everyone!

The customers of Unity, or addicts as we are lovingly called, use Friday Friends with Flair {FWF} to display their creations made with Unity.

Angela, owner of Unity, has generously given out a secret blinkie to one lucky customer participating in the FWF to display on their blog and will choose a winner from all the visitors who posts a comment on their blog during the hop!

So as you travel along the list of participating Friends with Flair (FOUND HERE), don't hesitate to leave some love for your chance to win the above mentioned RUBBA!

Time for the UNOFFICIAL theme, IF you are interested in doing the UNOFFICIAL theme for FWF, next week a few addicts and I have picked the theme of

This is UNOFFICIAL and NOT required. If you want to do the theme, great ~ if not, perfectly okay with me! And if you have a Great Idea for the UNOFFICIAL theme, please let me know in the comments section.
