Hi Everyone! Today is the day! The new, much anticipated Autumn-Winter Mini Catalogue is LIVE! All those yummy new goodies are ready to order from today so if you want to get your hands on a copy, and don’t have one already, please contact me ASAP!
I’m part of the ESAD blog hop again today, as I do for all new catalogue and mini releases. We’ve joined together to bring you 25 blogs of ideas for the new products!
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.
On to the projects now! I’ve chosen the Sweet Shop Suite and made a birthday invitation for my daughter’s upcoming birthday, as well as a cute little cupcake box to go with it.
The stamp set I’ve used for the invitation is called Sweet Cake. I love the retro look of the cupcake! It comes with three greetings, none of which were quite right for a birthday invitation so I used the word CELEBRATE from the Topsy Turvy Wishes set from the last mini catalogue. The cupcake icing has been embossed with the new VANILLA SCENTED embossing powder, and it smells just like you could eat it! The Die cut shape behind the cupcake is the new Labels Collection Framelits, which come in 6 sizes that all nest together!
The template for the cupcake box was purchased online here. I’ve used the Sweet Shop polka dot embossed DSP for the bottom of the cupcake wrapper. I used my glue pen and Dazzling Diamonds to put the glitter on the “icing”.
The rose on top has been coated with the CHERRY SCENTED Embossing powder and again, smells good enough to eat!
It’s a cute little set, and I hope you liked them! Now, many more have got ideas to show you today. Hop on over to the next blog in the lineup, which is Tanya Bell.
Enjoy the hop!
