ScrappinStamper: January 2012

Well here we are again, are you ready for another fabulous ESAD blog hop? I hope so because this one will rock your socks off! If you haven't seen the beautiful products on offer in this year's SAB brochure and already fallen in love with them, well you sure will after this little journey. You may have arrived here from the very talented Bron Heslop's blog if you are already doing the hop, make sure you click on the link at the bottom to head on over the next blog. We all have been busy creating some great projects to inspire you. Firstly......

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 cyberstamps, 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

I have created a wall hanging organiser for you today using the GORJUS Everyday Enchantment Papers, the Ribbon/Brad pack and the Fresh Vintage stamp set. I got this idea from the talented Tammy Maxvill on 'UStamp Oh My Word Edition 2011' .I purchased this frame from IKEA (love that place) and used some cork sheets in the bottom left panel to create a 'pinboard' using the brads. The ribbon is used in the bottom right panel to place photos, notes reminders etc... The top right panel uses the scallop envelope die (cut twice and made a box out of them) to hold receipts etc..and the top left panel is your 'tear-off' calendar for the year's important dates. I have embellished the frame with some die cut butterflies in Poppy Parade and embossed them with clear embossing powder. The floral image from the Fresh Vintage stamp set has been stamped on the calendar and the notes using the markers. Thanks for visiting today :-)

Here is a list of all the participants in the hop just in case you get lost along the way....now you can head on over to Michelle Grech's blog to see what she has been up to. Have fun!
