Below is a post from Cosmo Cricket's Blog. We fortunately sell Advantus so we'll continue to be able to sell these great products to you! We haven't gotten any other details other than what Julie posted on her blog, but we will let you know as we learn more!
Ok, now I teased you all a bit yesterday about a third really great thing happening in my life. Are you sitting down, because I would hate for you to fall over and hurt yourself. Have you swallowed your coffee, because this is the type of news that could make you spit it out! Are you prepared to spread some scrappy gossip throughout your world, because I have some beans to spill! Are you screaming, "Get to the punchline, Julie?!?!?"
Well if you have checked off all the above points, then let me tell you... Cosmo Cricket is super excited to announce that we have been acquired by Advantus Corporation. Now for those of you that aren't in with all the industry facts, Advantus is a leader in the craft and hobby industry. You may have heard of Tim Holtz, well they produce his products along with so many others.
Here's what this news means to you. Eric and I will now have time to take care of the parts of the business we love.... designing great products and being fun here on the blog. Lindsay, yep he's coming with us, will still be there to help you, make you laugh and give away free stuff. We are so excited to have the Advantus team to help us with the parts we don't love.... you know, all those left-brained tasks that people who don't draw get paid to do.
So, here's to a great future with tons more Cosmo Cricket goodness and other crafting ventures too! Stay with us because it's going to be EXCITING!!!
