Zva Creative Dec DT blog hop

 Zva Creative, and our talented Design Team welcomes you to join us for our December Design Team blog hop!

As you know, Zva offers 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. If you like what
 you see, you can find a list of stores and online retailers that sell
 Zva HERE
 

The Blog Hop begins at Windy Robinson's blog. She will have the complete list of
 all the participating blogs 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! 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, December 19th and runs through midnight US
 Eastern Standard Time on Tuesday, December 20th.
 
 The 5 winners will be announced on Wednesday, December 21st on each of
 the five winning blogs. The full list will be found on Windy Robinson's blog  as well.
 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. However, the more times you comment along the blog hop path,
  the more chances you will have to win.

We also thought it would be more fun to add even more chances to win our
 blog hop prize! To increase your chances of winning:

* Comment to let us know that you posted on your Facebook page about our
 hop (link to any of the blog hop posts)

 * Comment to let us know that you "tweeted" about our hop (link to any
 of the blog hop posts)

 * Comment to let us know that you asked your local store to carry Zva
 creative products. If they already do, that's fantastic, maybe you can
 suggest other products that they don't carry.

So you have FOUR chances on each blog to win one of our FIVE prizes!
That's a lot of chances to win!

I was asked to create a layout using olive flowers, and crystal bling. The olive flowers reminded me of Christmas, and being that its only 1 week till the big day, decided to do a Christmas layout. I used Kaisercafts 'Dec 25th' paper collection, and have made  this stunning olive flower from Zva Creative the main feature of my layout.







Zva Creative products used: 3" Dual frosty flower-olive, 1-3/8"sweet roses-olive, Imperial olive crystal flourish

The blog hop begins here at Windy Robinson's blog .
Your next stop is  Andrea Ewen.
 Enjoy!

Thank you for joining us! Merry Christmas!

P.S. Mark your calendar to join us again on January 30th for our next
 Zva blog hop!
