A Big Welcome to Virginia!

Hi everyone! Today we are happy to introduce you to our new DT member Virginia Nemchak!

Hi I'm Ginny Nemchak and I'm just so thrilled to be part of this fabulous team of amazing designers.I'm a small town girl through and through and I live with my family on acreage out in the country.
 I'm convinced there's no better living than out on a dirt road. Married for 23 years to the love of my life with 2 boys....one almost through college and one almost through high school. They keep me pretty busy with school and tennis and Boy Scouts.  When I'm not driving to practice or getting ready for camping...you'll find me in my studio where I love to create all types of paper projects, digital collage and my new favorite...mixed media. I'm excited to starting this great new adventure!

You're going to love her project! Ginny's project!

Here's......Ulrika!

Hello everyone! Today we are excited for you to meet DT member Ulrika Wandler!

Hello! A little about me. I'm 45 years old, living in Sweden. I am married, and we have two teenage sons.

I work fulltime as a police officer, an exciting job of course! 

I have been a scrapper for almost 10 years now, and I absolutely love every minute of it! I started out doing just layouts, but through the years I have tried other things as well, such as cards, alter, art journaling and home decor.

I'm excited for this opportunity to create for the amazing BoBunny! 

You're going to love this project! Ulrika's project!

Come Meet The Marvelous Solange!

Hello everyone! Welcome to the blog! Today we are happy to get to know DT member Solange Marques a little better!

Hi, my name is Solange Marques. I live in South of Brazil and I'm in love with a scrapbook  since 2004.I am married to John for over 32 years and have five children and two grandchildren. They are always present in my creations.

 I graduated in Architecture and Fine Arts (perhaps that explains my huge passion for paint and their constant presence in my projects. Working in a bank as a jewelry appraiser for 27 years until last week and today I am retired and I can  now create full-time.  

In a scrap I love mixing techniques, mainly involving paints and textures (watercolor, acrylic paint, modeling paste and a lot of mediums). I consider myself a mixed media artist and I love the artsy style!

Have a look at this project! Solange's project!

I started scrapbooking  end of 2009. I like to scrapbook my family,especially photos of my sons. I love to look back at my pages with my kids and reminisce.

I love scrapbooking to be able to have the important family memories recorded in a gorgeous way. In addition,I love the sense of accomplishment when I complete a scrapbook page. It is a way for me to relieve stress,and time for me to devote to something where I can feel the joy of sharing completed pages with my family. Scrapbooking is a hobby that I must have in my life.

Meet Wonderful Rhonda!

Hello and happy Sunday everyone! Your weekend just got a little better because you get to meet DT member Rhonda Van Ginkel!

Crafty greetings to you from Minnesota! My name is Rhonda Van Ginkel and I live in the beautiful Twin Cities area. I am blessed to be a loving wife to my husband Chuck, and a mom to our two beautiful young boys ages 8 and 7.  My wonderful paper crafting journey began back in April of 2009 and haven't looked back. 

It started by going to a crop just to organize some photographs. Immediately I was drawn to the scrapbook pages I saw created and knew that I had to make some books for my children. 

I have always been drawn to creative arts whether it be drawing, painting, photography, sewing, writing or basically anything that is hands on. With the addition of mixed media products in recent years it is a constant learning, growing and evolving process as a designer. 

What is my style? Classic, attention to trends and details but with an addition of my own twist!  I totally love funky fresh and unexpected and will often find other purposes for a line, embellishment or element.  To me, the juxtaposition of mixing materials or up-cycling using a recycled item or packaging creates a feeling of comfort or warmth. I adore anything that embraces a bit of imperfection and creates comfortable whimsy.

I am very excited to join the BoBunny Design Team again to continue my crafty adventures. They have the best products in the industry! 

Watch this awesome project! Rhonda's project

Welcome NEW DT Member Kathi Mann!

Hello everyone! We are so excited to give a big welcome to NEW design team member Kathi Mann!

Hi, my name is Kathi, I am a mother of two grown children, and 6 grandchildren. They are great subjects for my photos & craft projects. I am married to Michael a wonderful guy who supports my love for crafting. We live in Napavine, WA. I am a Mental Health & Substance Abuse Counselor. Crafting is a time to relax & unwind. 

I am an avid crafter and I have a passion for creating mini albums, cards, scrapbook layouts, altered art and mixed media pieces. 

My style is quite quirky, but I like to describe it as romantic vintage with a little bit of shabby chic & grunge. I enjoy everything paper & like to try new things & new products. 

I have been crafting for many years, from quilting, & cake decorating before finding paper crafting. I enjoy sharing my love of crafting with others. I especially love crafting with my granddaughters, teaching the girls new techniques.

Besides crafting I enjoy going to high tea (tea parties).

I hope I am able to inspire you with my creations while you are here with me. So sit back, relax and enjoy!

We hope you enjoy this project from Kathi: Kathi's Project

A Big Welcome To Katherine!

Good day everyone! It's time to welcome NEW DT member Katherine Sutton! 

Hi, my name is Katherine Sutton and I live in the UK with my 2 boys and husband.  I’ve been scrapping since 2006, it all started with a birthday present and this has grown to fill a few shelves in my house now!  I love documenting my childrens lives and the stories that happen in my family, I especially love it when they ask to look at my albums and go through all the memories they contain. 

My style is painty and layered - not only do I love to create layers of paint and colour and try out new effects, I also love to add layers of texture whether that be through stencils and pastes or using lots of different media.  I am often found distressing and stitching the edges of papers and am known for teaching ‘messy’ classes!  

I am so excited to have this opportunity and I am looking forward to sharing lots of projects with you using some amazing products.

Welcome Irene!!

Welcome to another fabulous day of new DT introductions! Isn't this fun meeting all the fabulous ladies and seeing their amazing projects! Today we are happy to welcome back DT member Irene Tan!

My name is Irene Tan or more known as “Scrapperlicious”. I'm a mother of two and I have the most wonderful family that always supports me in pursuing my passion. Scrapbooking to me is really about family and life. There's nothing more fun and inspiring than to scrap photographs captured everyday of our loved ones and the moments spent together. My scrapping motto has always been "Scrap with your heart and don’t forget to have fun too!"

I officially started scrapbooking in March 2007 and a couple of months later, I discovered an absolute love of stamping and inking. I don’t really know how to describe my style of scrapping. It really depends on how my inspirations and mood takes me while I'm creating. I’m so excited to continue to design for BoBunny and I'm sure this year, I will have even more fun!!

See Irene's amazing project here: Irene's Project!

Welcome Emilia!

Hello Everyone! Today we are so excited to introduce you to our NEW DT member Emilia van den Heuvel!

Hello! My name is Emilia van den Heuvel and I’m a Bulgarian girl, living and working out of the Netherlands. I grew up in the beautiful capital of Bulgaria – Sofia and being a city girl is kind of in my blood. My mom filled our house with books and painting and art journals and she thought me to love all things crafty and artsy.

Before I moved to the Netherlands to be with my husband, I was working as a vet and now I’m a part-time vet, a full-time mommy to my amazing munchkins – Theo and Elise and a passionate crafter. In my spare time you will find me behind my crafty table, reading a book or visiting the next magical place with my family.

I started scrapbooking in 2004 after my first child was born. I think it is the perfect way of preserving our memories. Every single one of my pages is telling a story, which will always remind my children who they are and who we were as a family!

Welcome Elena O. to the Design Team!

Hello everyone! Today we  are happy to introduce you to our newest DT member Elena!

I am Elena Olinevich from Belarus, Eastern Europe. I am so very happy to join the amazing BoBunny team.

    I have been crafting non stop for the past 7 years long. And I am really happy to do it daily, since I am  a full time artist and educator.

So when I am not scrapping, I am busy with my kids, their homework, driving them to their classes and other mother to be duties. Moreover I am a book worm. I collect books, search for  the rare illustrations and enjoy reading good books.

   The other part of my day is devoted to my crafting process, as well as preparing live and on line classes. I also spend a lot of time sharing my tips on my YouTube channel. So even during the week ends I feel that I need to take my papers, flowers and start doing something.

 I have experimented a lot, starting as a traditional scrapbooker and cardmaker, but then I found myself in mixing the techniques. What I know for sure I love watercolors, flowers and beautiful papers, they are my passion.

But if to be honest, the main distinctive feature of my projects are  layering and thorough attention to the details. I can spend several days put a small piece on one place  and being a perfectionist I can not stop while I am satisfied with each and every little tiny piece.

 However I am quite a  gentle person so that is why all my creations look feminine and soft.

We are so excited to have Elena O. on our team! Check out her amazing video!

A Big Welcome for Denise!

Welcome, welcome! We are so excited to introduce you to our next fantastic DT member, Denise van Deventer!

Hello! I started scrapbooking a number of years ago, but only really started seriously 

scrapping after my son was born, about 7 years ago. I am a South African, 

a devoted mother, giving wife and happy creator! I am a very happy scrapper

 and love creating layouts, as well as cards and altered projects. I am not sure 

that I have a particular style, probably somewhere between classic and shabby

 chic, but recently I have also done quite modern & love mixed media pages.

 I love chipboard & embellishments  & I am always keen to try new things.

I am a very versatile scrapper and create altered projects, cards and pages!

 I love anything paper and love trying my hand at a new idea! 

I think that is why paper crafting is such a passion for me, because 

it is ever evolving with new papers, new tools and new crazes! 

So whether it’s layouts, cards, mini albums, tags or altered projects,

 I enjoy them all & would be happy to create any of these.

Many things inspire me and my son and family are definitely two of those things.

 I also love colour and layering, but sometimes clean and simple does the trick.

 I love photography and really enjoy taking good photo’s that can later be

 scrapped.  I truly believe that great photo’s make for great projects.

Many Thanks to BoBunny for the absolute honour and pleasure, of serving on the Design Team for another term!

Welcoming New Design Team Member Angela Tombari!

Today we are excited to welcome NEW Design Team member, Angela Tombari!

Hello! My name is Angela Tombari, I’m 40 something and I’m Italian. I’m married with an handsome man with an appealing name, Valentino and we have two wonderful sons, I would say they are our masterpieces!

I am a working mum. I have a part time job as airline ground staff at the airport of Bologna, the town where I live here in Italy. I love my job, but it’s pretty stressful, because of the shift and of the hundreds of people I have to deal with daily. Probably this is the reason why I need to go off by myself in my studio and just create. Seriously, it’s my therapy!

I’ve been scrapbooking for 4 years and I’ve been crafting since I was a child. I can sew, embroider, make pottery, renew old fornitures, make lamps, but paper is my big passion, scrapbooking is my right dimension! My preferred type of project are definitely scrapbook layouts, with a fresh and romantic style, even if I love to experiment any kind of work, from misc. letter and project life to mix-media and journaling.

Take a look at a beautiful project from Angela: Angela's Project!
