ESAD Autumn/Winter Mini Blog Hop

Good Morning,
I hope you’re ready for the ESAD Blog Hop!
What is ESAD you say? ESAD stands for Extra Special Australian (and New Zealand) Demonstrators and it is an online group just for Australian and New Zealand demonstrators for Stampin’ Up!
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 its 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.


If you've been following the Blog Hop, then you've come from seeing the gorgeous work of Philipa Petty. If you haven't seen any other blogs yet, just keep hopping till you get back here!
