Zva Creative April DT Blog Hop!

Zva Creative and the Design Team welcomes you to join us this month for a blog hop that we feel is always extra special!

As you know, Zva Creative offers so many beautiful color groupings for pearls, flowers and crystals. We want to make sure that they shine bright for you, so each designer was asked to share a creation using a specific color or color combination on their blog hop project.

The Blog Hop begins at Kim Hughes' blog. She will have the complete list of all blogs that are participating in case there is a glitch along the way. If you would like to play along, just follow along the blog path. I am linking to one of the Zva designers and that designer is linking to the next and so on. Be prepared to be inspired along the way. Hidden on FIVE of the blogs is a Zva Creative prize package ...WOOT! WOOT! Winners will be randomly chosen after the hop is over, so it's important to leave a comment on as many blogs as you can along the way.

The Blog Hop starts today, April 25th and runs through midnight US Eastern Standard Time on Tuesday, April 26th and the 5 winners will be announced on Wednesday, April 27th on each of the five winning blogs. The full list will be found on Kim Hughes‘s blog as well (linked above). We will do our best to notify each winner, but it's best if you can pop in to all of the blogs once again on Wednesday...plus, you never know what kind of inspirational creation that you may find there. All you need to do is leave a comment on this Zva Blog Hop post...you do not need to leave a comment on each and every designer's blog post to qualify. The more times you leave a comment along the blog hop path though, the more chances you will have to be one of the lucky winners.


This month, I had a combination of nominated colours: cream, red and black. So I took a white/cream Zva Creative flower, and misted it red (Santa Baby Glimmermist). I then added flourishes in red and black. And I finished off with some cream pearl leaves. I couldn't resist added some bling to the banner as well. A girl can NEVER have too much bling, lol! Layout titled: That Dress. Zva Creative products used: flower embellishment (FL-04CA-124); pearl leaves (PEW-03CB-101); rhinestone flourishes (CR-04CA-105 and CR-04CA-102); pearls (PE-02CB-101/CR-02CA-127); rhinestones (CR-02CB-101); and 2mm foam dots (AD01CB102). Other products used: Lily Bee papers; Lily Bee banner stickers; Lily Bee alpha stickers; ribbon; Martha Stewart border punch; and Glimmermist.

The blog hop begins here: Kim Hughes
Your next stop is here: Camilla Elkman

Thank you SO MUCH for joining us. I hope you have been inspired to go have fun and create, and I hope we see you back here next month for the May Blog Hop! Don't forget to drop by on Wednesday to find out who the lucky winners are!!!
