ZVA Creative March Blog Hop



Zva Creative and my fellow Design Team members welcome you to our March blog hop! We are excited about month's hop and look forward to sharing our new work with you!

Today's Blog Hop begins at Zva Creative's blog! Be sure head on over to check it out! You will also find a complete list of all the participating blogs there (in case there is a glitch along the way).

As you know, Zva offers many beautiful color groupings for pearls, flowers and crystals. If you like what you see along the hop you can find a list of stores and online retailers that sell Zva HERE
.

Mini Album
I created a mini paper bag album.  It was fun for me because I usually do not create mini anythings.   This is the front cover.  

( I have to add that the flowers on this page were made by my friend/scrapper  Maggi Harding who highly encouraged me to try a mini by handing me the blank album with a friendly "here ya go!" She's quite persuasive.  Thanks Maggi.)



ZVA Creative CR-06CA-107 red crystal flourish.  I had to cut it in half because it was too large to fit. 

ZVA Creative CRW-03CB-148 Basic Lines Crystal (0.8cm) (used on the inside of the flower)
Here is the second page.  The page on the left is a fold out.  

Here is the fold out. 

Here is a view of the  entire foldout pages 1 and 2.

You can see this page features ZVA Creative CR-05CA-131 Flickering - Lime /Olive crystal ( the large flourish).

The smaller flourish was cut and used here on the page below.  More flowers by Maggi Harding.


These are pages 3 and 4.  

 This is the product used on this page: ZVA Creative CRS-06CA-103 Smoke Flourish
Pages 5 and 6.
