It's time for the ESAD Autumn/Winter Blog Hop! We have been busy preparing some fabulous projects for you using the brand new products from the Autumn/Winter Mini Catalogue.
ESAD stands for Extra Special Australian (& New Zealand) Demonstrators, and it's an online group just for Australian and New Zealand demonstrators for Stampin' Up! We share our love for what we do with our customers, friends, wonderful blog visitors and also 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 needed.
If you are a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator located in Australia or New Zealand, please feel free to click here to join our wonderful group.
Now, on to the hop! You may have arrived here from Gail Kirby's amazing blog, but no matter where you started you will be able to hop around the full circuit by following the links on each post. If you leave a comment on each post in the hop, email Sharlene to let her know and you'll be in the draw to win some Blog Candy! There will be one winner from Australia and one from New Zealand. (Demonstrators are encouraged to comment but will not be eligible to win the Blog Candy).
For my projects today, I decided to focus on the new stamp set Lots of Bots. My son adores robots, and although it's a while until his birthday, I decided to create some coordinating birthday party projects using this adorable stamp set, along with a new colour and the new Big Shot and accessories!
I have used a bright 'In Colour' colour scheme of Tangerine Tango and Kiwi Kiss with either Pacific Point or Melon Mambo. Melon Mambo is one of the three brand-new In Colours now available.
First off, I have made an invitation:
The pockets are made from half an A4 sheet (cut lengthways) so there's no wastage. The inserts can be printed on the computer and then the round tab is added at the top. You could put some magnetic tape onto the back of the insert or pocket so that the recipient can stick it onto their fridge.Next I have made a treat box, using the new Pillow Box die:
And finally, some little cupcake picks:
You can click on the link in my sidebar to view the brand new Autumn/Winter mini catalogue, or contact me (if you don't already have an existing Demonstrator) and I will send you your own copy. I have had so much fun being involved in my first Blog Hop - as well as getting early access to these brand new goodies! If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, contact me (or your own Demonstrator) to find out more about joining Stampin' Up!
(I didn't have time to bake any cupcakes, so the scone is filling in!)
