Bo Bunny Etcetera and Authentique

 Had so much fun cropping at the Paper Niche this weekend, it was the last crop before the store moves later this month. The new location is on the corner of SR84 (I595) and Pine Island
Between the socializing and the food I got 2 pages done, one using the new Bo Bunny papers Etcetera and the other one the new awesome Authentique line.
The next scrappy event for me will be 3 days in Orlando for SDV, are really looking forward to the trip and to spend a long weekend with lots of great friends... If I just could decide what to bring along to work on.....
