Flat Bunny is Welcome Here


Flat Bunny is anxious to get acquainted with true BoBunny fans (come be her friend on facebook, just search for Flat BoBunny) at a BoBunny sponsored crop. When Flat Bunny comes to visit, she will bring materials for a BoBunny crop! If you coordinate with a BoBunny retail store, Flat Bunny will bring materials so you can invite 9 of your friends to the crop for a total of 10. If there is not a retail store within a 50 mile radius, Flat Bunny will come with material for you and 4 friends to enjoy!

What you need to do-
1. Create an invitation featuring BoBunny products and send a digital image to flatbunny@bobunny.com along with signed business card from your favorite BoBunny retail store.*

2. Flat Bunny will post the card images she receives on the BoBunny blog
(you will be famous!).

3. On the 10th of each month, she will choose her favorite invitation and
schedule her travel to meet the winning designer.

4. Flat Bunny likes to be fussed over so you must take lots of pictures
during the Crop and send them to flatbunny@bobunny.com. This
way all her BoBunny friends will be able to follow
the adventures of Flat Bunny on the blog.

5. Flat Bunny will be traveling to a new location every month so she must be on
her way home no later than the last day of the month. Also, Flat Bunny has her
passport so she can travel far and wide.

Hi Everybody,
I'm working at home today trying to get caught up on a million and one things- not making a lot of progress I might add. Anyway, I need to get the newsletter out and figured I'd better update the blog first so you'd have something to read if you clicked on the link!

Our spring Tag Sale was a big success. Many people earned well over $100 in store credit, with several people earning over $200! Our only mishap of the day was that the Post Office had decided to have their parking lot swept that day (without notifying us) and we had to quickly tear down the tents and bring everything inside before they kicked up a sandstorm! Fun! It all worked out though; thankfully we are used to "winging it".
We are working on our summer schedule and have added a couple of classes to the June Calender. Special Guest, Mitra Friant, the owner of Impression Obsession rubber stamps will be here on Thursday morning, June 3rd, to teach a class. We do not have samples but Mitra has told us that she will be using many of her new Cover a Card stamp background with the Mega Mount handle as well as the EXTREMELY popular shaker windows.

A shipment of brand new stamps from Memory Box arrived on Friday and Donna was so excited she added a SUNDAY class to the June calendar to be able to use them! The class is called Card Jubilee and will be June 27th at 11 am. A pack of Jubilee paper will be included in the cost of the class.

Stampavie stamps also arrived this week, although we are still waiting on a few more- They ship them as they arrive in the US.

Quick Update

So much new product has been rolling in I can barely keep up.
We finally got the Stamper's Anonymous stamps that Tim Holtz released at CHA in January along with 4 of his Texture Fades, although the Bingo Card set has already sold out.

The Pebbles and American Crafts lines have been flying out the door and the new Basic Grey, Max and Whiskers line has been right behind them.

Those of you who love My Favorite Things stamps need to get in and pick up the Pure Innocence and Jolinne stamps before those are gone.

REMINDER: Our spring Customer Tag Sale is this Sunday, May 16th. If you signed up as a vendor you must get your marked item in to us on Friday or Saturday. The Tag Sale starts at 11am. Please pray for good weather so we can put stuff outside!
