Cards from BoBunny Fans

Welcome to BoBunny's Week of Cards in honor of World Card Making Day this Saturday, October 5th. To start our week off we wanted to share some hand made cards made by you, our BoBunny Fans, that we found while we were searching the world wide web.

Because You Are Wonderful by Jeri Vann for FotoBella

This card uses our new The Avenues collection, and it's beautiful shape caught our attention immediately.

Emma by Elisabeth Bottoms

She made a Christening card for a little girl using our Anthem collection. What a clever and creative use of this mostly patriotic themed paper!

Hexagon Christmas by Shazzagirl70

We just love how she used the new collection Silver & Gold to create this fun and graphic style Christmas card.

Beauty Blooms From Within by Meggies Nana

This card was found at Scrapbook.com. She used the ever gorgeous Country Garden collection to create a beauty of a card.

So have you been creating hand made cards using some of your favorite BoBunny papers and products? If so, we would love to see them. Feel free to share them with us on our Facebook page!

Live the Life you IMAGINED 

By Agnieszka Bellaidea

From the very first moment I saw the new collection The Avenues I knew we would spend some time together.

I love to work with this color combo and all papers, chipboards, trinkets, and stickers.  They are just a pleasure to work with. For me, as a collector of Bo Bunny papers, it was also very important that I can mix The Avenues with my other favorite collections like C'est La Vie, but if you still have any Country Garden or Prairie Chic papers you can create with them as well.

I believe you will enjoy The Avenues as much as I do!

What word would you use to describe The Avenues?? Leave us a comment and let us know!

Have a great weekend friends!

  

Mix it up

One of the fun things about BoBunny's collections

is how well the colors in the lines match.  We try to make

sure we have 3 or 4 of our Double Dot colors in each collection.

This makes mixing it up kinda fun.

Our Design Team is fabulous at combining completely

different themed papers and making them coordinate with each other.

See if you can name the different collections BEFORE looking at

the supply list....

"PIN"spiration

I love seeing how differently everyone is inspired by the same pictures.

Today we pulled out a variety of collections we were inspired by...

Country Garden, Powder Mountain, Little Miss, Isabella and lots of Blossoms!!

Here was the inspiration for today's layouts.

So Gorgeous!!

Beautiful

by Agnieszka Piskorz

 "The Inspiration for me were the pastel colors of image with the chair. They are as delicate as my daughter. I added some other, contrasting colors to highlight the image of Alice. Butterflies symbolize the transience of childhood."

Live the Life You Imagined

By: Lynn Shokoples

 "I was inspired by the beautiful soft pastel colors of the pinks and greys in the photo. I added some punchwork and some stamping with the new Bo Bunny stamps in white to soften the edges of photo background and give it a girly feel. I also love using the stickers as a title for my layouts. I included some hidden journaling all about Ashley and how much she means to me. It's so wonderful to imagine where life will take her."

have that problem? 

Have a fun scrappy day!  Thanks friends.

Bo Bunny loves Scrapbook Panache!!!

Come on in...

Scrapbook Panache opened in 2008 by Harriet Thone. Here in Arkansas we do not have a big selection of specialty scrapbook stores, so Harriet wanted to open a store where she could offer many different styles of papers and embellishments from several different companies. She has done that here at Scrapbook panache we carry the latest and greatest from over 25 different companies. Out of those Bo Bunny is one of our favorite brands to carry. Each time Bo Bunny comes out with a new line, we know that we have to have the whole collection for the store. I think what we and our customers love the most about Bo Bunny is that each line that they make is so unique and different from the last but they all have so many buttons stickers and embellishments that match each unique line perfectly. That makes it easier for the designers here at the store along with our customers to make a layout or cards.

We have recently moved to a new location where our store is now 4,000 sq feet and we have a large crop room in the back that seats up to 40 people. We are right off of the interstate and our building sets in between several restaurants and motels. So anyone that would like to attend any of our FREE monthly crops from out of town can come and stay and do all they need to within walking distance from our store. Our crop room can be used or reserved for any crafting event as long as we are not holding an event at the time of request!!! The first Saturday of each month is when we hold our FREE monthly crop from 10am-5pm. Everyone gets a gift for attending and we have a drawing each hour for a door prize; Harriet always gives away the BEST prizes!!! We also have a kids class each month for only $10. We have several different instructors here at the store...Angela Anderson, Brenda Collins, Chasidy Mills, Denise Donaldson, Franshel Horney aolng with Harriet Thone. We teach different classes through out the month including scrapbook layouts, card classes, mixed media and mini albums.

 We have recently created a website http://www.myscrapbookpanache.com/index.html that is still being worked on daily!!! We also have a Facebook Page "Scrapbook Panache" (it is the page with the profile picture of our sign) that you can check out or follow us if you would like.

Below are some projects from this amazing store!

 

 Thank you Bo Bunny for giving us a chance to be in your spotlight!!!

Thank you guys for being such a great customer!  We love our stores!

Field Trip Friday

In case you've forgotten what Field Trip Friday is....

This is when the girls take a field trip from what they normally do/use

and step outside their comfort zone while creating.

I'm pretty sure there is nothing these girls couldn't do.

Beer
Romy Veul

 On this lay-out I did two things that are rather different from what I usually do. First thing

is that I made a lay-out about our cat (her name is Beertje/ Beer, which means 'Little bear' in English). Although I adore our cats, I don't seem to make lay-outs about them very often. 

For some reason I consider scrapping people a lot easier. Second, I tried to use colours that

 I wouldn't normally choose. I like to work with deep, contrasting colours, but stuck to a 

more neutral colour palette on this lay-out instead.

Patterned Paper: Country Garden, Almanac, Dot, Letters, Weathered, Cut Outs/ Country Garden
Chipboard: Country Garden 12x12 Chipboard
Stickers: Country Garden Combo Sticker

And....  

Check out this adorable Turkey made by one of our BB fans.

Her name is Pam Bray and we fell in love with this little guy and 

wanted you all to see him!  

She blogs at http://www.pammejo-scrapbookflair.com/ 

 We hope you all are enjoying the awesome fall day and were inspired to

step outside your comfort zone and try something new.

If you haven't already done so... you'll want to make sure to pick

up some of our Apple Cider Collection before it's all gone!!
