Welcome to Africa!! Store highlight

 In 2008 BoBunny accepted its first invitation from Scrapbooking@aquila
to participate in their Xtravaganza scrapbooking event.  We  met amazing 
scrapbookers from across South Africa as well as neighboring countries joined us.

BoBunny has many dear friends in South Africa and we thank 
Scrapbooking@ Aquila for being fantastic hosts.  Take a moment to view
the pictures of the store, a few projects and some of their talented scrapbookers.

If I ever get to South Africa, I'm definitely going to visit the store! Beautiful pages done by everyone. I really love those red lollipop flowers on the "Jana" layout. Gorgeous!

I have a number of studio photos that I want to use in layouts, but I couldn't visualize them until I saw these. Wow! The store is absolutely wonderful.

This is the best store ever with the nicest teachers and staff. They keep us up to date on the latest trends in the world of scrapbooking. (Meeting the Bo Bunny people at the extravaganza was an amazing experience.) Great classes and the best scrap friends ever. They are like family. I try not to miss a single Wednesday class. Thanks everyone at Aquilla for making scrapping even more special.
