Welcome to all blog hoppers!!
I'm very excited about the blog hop that the ESAD group have put together. For those of you not familiar with who the ESAD group are, please let me explain. ESAD stands for Extra Special Australian (and New Zealand) Demonstrators and it's an online group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who speak regularly via emails and on-line forums. We love what we do and we love to share it with our customers, friends and (of course) our blog visitors.
If you are an Australian or New Zealand Stampin' Up! Demonstrator and would like to join this fantastic group please click here. If you are not currently a Demonstrator, but have been thinking about starting your own business, or simply just want to purchase the starter kit, please email me at the address on the right of this screen.
Now, down to what I have created for you..... This blog hop is all about promoting the Sale-a-Bration stamp sets (see blow posts to see how you can get your free stamp sets). I have used the Whimsical Words set for both my projects.
Project 1 - A Scrapbook Page
I've scrapped a page of my immediate family. Caitlin (7yo daughter) took this photo at Christmas with her new camera (another scrapbooker in the making (lol)). We don't very often get the opportunity to all be together (Mum and Dad are currently living in Perth), so I am delighted with this page.
