What is ESAD?

 ESAD stands for "Extra Special Australasian Demonstrators" and is a Facebook group just for Australian and New Zealand Independent Stampin' Up! demonstrators.

We love what we do & love to share with our customers, friends and 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 are a Stampin' Up! demonstrator located in Australia or New Zealand then please feel free to leave me a comment with your email address then I'll contact you with information on how to join our group.”

Now on to my project. For the feature on my card I have used the Sleigh Ride Edgelit Dies, Christmas Greetings Thinlits Dies plus the Softly Falling Embossing Folder from the Holiday Catalogue. The only Stamped piece on this card is the word Christmas. I made 33 of these cards for a team training swap which was held yesterday. 

The Whisper White mat was embossed with the Softly Falling Embossing Folder I then used a Night of Navy Stampin' Marker to ink up the word Christmas from an Embellished Ornaments sentiment.  The Night of Navy center is actually a separate Oval which was cut and embossed then the White Craft Ink pad was wiped across it and left overnight to dry, the Houses were cut with the Sleigh Ride Framelit Die I added Marina Mist ink under the Houses  for the snow scene using a Sponge Dauber, then added Dazzling Diamonds Glitter with the 2-Way Glue pen. This piece was then adhered to the Night of Navy Oval which in turn was adhered to the underside of the Whisper White Matt. 

For each card this involved 6 cuts, 4 of them through the Big Shot (in total 132 cuts through the Big Shot),  Which means I cut 196 pieces of cardstock and Embossed 66 pieces of cardstock in all.
