Zva Creative DT Blog Hop!

Are you ready to be inspired?

As you may know, I am a proud design team member for Zva Creative. We are joining together today to share a project that we have created using some of our favorite Zva Creative products. I am hoping that you will take some time to join us for a little bit of fun!

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, I am linking to one of the Zva designers and that designer is linking to the next and so on. There are 19 design team members, so be prepared to be inspired along the way. Hidden on 5 of the blogs is a Zva Creative prize package ...YAY! Those blogs 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.

This Blog Hop runs through midnight US Eastern Standard Time on Tuesday, June 29th and the 5 winners will be announced on Wednesday, June 30th on each of the winning blogs and the full list will be found on Kim Hughes‘s blog (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.


Here is my layout I created for the Hop! My dd last winter in her new jacket. She was so bundled up and so snuggly!

For this project I used ZVA's Self Adhesive Crystals (CRB-03CA-114) and (CR-03CA-117) which accented the black in the papers wonderfully.

Did you know that ZVA also makes gorgeous flowers?! The ones pictured above are White Icy Blossoms (FLBK-02CA-115) and White Sweet Blossoms (FLBK-02CA-105) to which I inked and added distress stickles - giving them a more vintage feel.


Please hop on over to see: Ingrid Danvers.

Thank you SO MUCH for joining us!
