I’ve been busy this weekend completing some boxes for sale at Craft Markets. These boxes were started a long time ago, and use mainly retired cardstock and DSP, although all Stampin’ Up! products.

ESAD sale-a-bration Blog Hop

I’ve got a special treat to share with you today! Not only does Sale-A-Bration start today, but myself and my friends over at ESAD have joined together for another Blog Hop! 23 Demonstrators have made projects for you showcasing items from this brochure. So grab a cuppa, sit back and hop around the blogs! Make sure you leave comments for all the fabulous ladies who put this hop together! You may have started off the hop here, or you may have come from Nicole Derendorf, either way, join in!
What is ESAD?
ESAD stands for "Extra Special Australasian Demonstrators" and it is an on-line group just for Australian and New Zealand Stampin Up demonstrators.
We so love what we do and not only do we love to share it with our customers, friends, and wonderful blog visitors, but we share our love for what we do with each other as demonstrators. We run swaps, challenges, tutorials, product know-how, and cyber-stamps, and we are always there to help and support each other when it is needed.
So if you are a Stampin' Up! demonstrator located in Australia or New Zealand, then please feel free to click here to join our wonderful group
For this Blog Hop, I’ve made three separate projects, all made using the the Everyday Enchantment Designer Series Paper, and The Everyday Enchantment Ribbon and Brad Pack. The fine Organdy Ribbon is gorgeous and the printed brads are really pretty.
The first project is a very pretty Wreath. Made with instructions from Fiona Duthie, for UStamp with Dawn and Friends – Lets Score!!
In this version I’ve also used the Big Shot and Beautiful Butterfly Bigz Die.

Cards with embossed Fabric
Yes, the following cards have been embossed with the Big shot.
Material was adhered to Whisper White card stock used the new Big-Shot multi-purpose adhesive sheets. The material/card was then put though the Big Shot Die Cutting machine and cut with the Bigz Beautiful Die, then again with an embossing folder.
Easel Cards
A few weeks ago at my Saturday afternoon class we had a go at making several different varieties of easel cards. The are wonderful show case cards and were fun to do.
These cards all used the Big shot and Dies. Scallop Circle Die, Bigz Butterly Die, Blossom Party Die.
Sorry I can’t find where I cased the Butterfly card from to give them credit.
The Circle easel card also used the Circle Scissors Plus to cut the large circles and the petal punch for the tiny message envelope. The top circle was cut out of glossy white card, trees embossed with black embossing powder and then brayered in blue and green.
We also made two other cards not pictured, a tiny easel card with the small butterflies from the Bigz Butterfly Die and another easel card using the Top Note Die.
