ESAD Sale-A-Bration Blog Hop

Hi there

And welcome to the ESAD Sale-A-Bration Blog Hop. You may have arrived from Andrea's blog or just joined my page. This is my first time participating in a bloghop :)

So 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 love what we do & love to share with our customers, friends, and wonderful blog visitors. We also share what we love in our ESAD Demonstrator community, through swaps, challenges, sharing knowledge, ideas & friendship, and we're always there to help and support each other.

So if you're a Stampin' Up! demonstrator located in Australia or New Zealand, then please feel free to leave me a comment with your Email address and I'll contact you with information on how to join our wonderful group.

Now on with my project. One of the girls I work with admired my tissue box holder on my desk so I decided to make her one - and just kept going with some other accessories for her desk! I've used the Sweet Sorbet DSP as my base for all the projects

First up is the tissue box cover - makes a standard tissue box look great. I've used Crisp Cantaloupe for the base then decorated it with DSP, ribbon, punches and of course some bling!

Next up you need something to make notes in so I cut a standard 3B1 notebook in half and covered it with Crisp Cantaloupe card stock. The front is stamped using the matching set - Petal Parade plus some more bling. The pen has a piece of DSP in the barrel to match the notebook.

Last but not least is a Post-It Note holder - now you'll never loose them on your desk. The front has been decorated using the Decorative Dots Embossing Folder, Petal Parade and more bling.

My friend was very pleased with her gifts and hopes that the other staff are jealous! I think I may be making more of these sets.

Supplies:

Stamp Set - Petal Parade

Card Stock - Crisp Cantaloupe

Ink - Crisp Cantaloupe, Summer Starfruit, Pool Party, Sahara Sand, Pistachio Pudding, Calypso Coral
