Yippee!!! I was asked to be on the Zva Creative Design Team!!!!

I was just so thrilled when a few weeks ago I got an email from Zva Creative asking if I'd consider being on their design team.......would I??!!! For sure!! They make such beautiful crystal flourishes, pretty blooms and cute brads!! A week or so later I got a big box in the mail filled with gorgeous goodies to design with! I've had some opportunity to work with their products in the past but WOW!! they've brought some new lines out that are just to die for!!

As soon as I had a free minute (with the kiddies off school and Steve with some vacation time, we've been doing a lot of running).....I just had to get a little scrapping in. Here are a couple of layouts I just made for the Winter CHA for the Zva Creative booth.....

Here are some close-up pictures of the Zva Products I used. The blue/green crystal flourishes, the crystal title, the rhinstone brads, the blue and brown blooms(except for the larger brown one), even the pop-dots are all Zva products. I added some small bronze rhinestones from their crystal strips package to the Queen Anns Lace rub-on to give it some extra texture and glimmer.....





This is the second layout I made for them. I used 3 types of blooms in this one, the heavy silk blooms, small felt blooms and the purple paper rosette blooms (wrapped around the circle frame), plus some wonderful gold colour crystal flourishes and some Satin covered brads that have a really pretty sheen in real life! The crystal title letters (Magic) are also by Zva.....






I can't wait to do some more pages!! Kiddies are back to school on Monday so I'll have lots of time to play! Check out the Zva Creative website for to see some of the beautiful products they offer!.... http://zvacreative.com/
