ZVA Creative October DT Blog Hop!

Zva Creative and our talented Design Team welcome you to join us for our October Blog Hop! We are happy to have you join us and hope you enjoy all that we have to share with you along the way!

The Blog Hop begins at Zva Creative's blog! Be sure head on over to check it out! Leave a comment there for a chance to win an extra prize package just for visiting the blog and telling us that you stopped by! 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. We want to make sure that they shine bright for you, so each designer was will be sharing 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.

My colour for this month's blog hop was blue and I've tried to incorporate as much of this gorgeous colour as possible on my project! It literally pops off the page when combined with a neutral colour such as beige or brown.

To add a little intensity to my flowers, I spritzed them with Spritz spray in Ocean Splash.

 

 

 If you would like to play along with our design team, 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 designer's 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, October 29th and runs through midnight US Eastern Standard Time on Tuesday, October 30th. 

 

The 5 winners will be announced on Wednesday, October 31st on Zva Creative's blog. We will do our best to notify each winner, but it's best if you can pop in to Zva's blog on Wednesday.

 

All you need to do is leave a comment on this 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.

*Hop over to Zva's blog and leave a comment there to tell us that you made it there!

The blog hop begins here at Zva Creative's blog. Your next stop is Nicole Martel. Enjoy!

Thank you for joining us!

Weekend in Photos

We were lucky enough to be blessed with a few hours of sunshine (although cold!) this weekend so the family headed out to our local pumpkin patch.  I have never come across such beautiful and BIG pumpkins in my life!! The average weight of our pumpkins was over 25lbs with the largest weighing over 35lbs!! Poor daddy had to carry all 5 from the furthest end of the pumpkin patch (that's where all the good ones were) all the way back to our van - totally worth the effort though

 

 

 

Happy Haunting!

Today I have a bunch of wonderful Hallowe'en Cards to share with you all using Graphic 45's Happy Haunting Collection.

I've made two in the classic Hallowe'en style and the other I've transformed into something a little different. Just love the neverending possibilities when it comes to Graphic 45 papers!

The beautiful bling and delicate flowers are from ZVA Creative. I also love the delicate chippies - all from Imaginarium Designs!
Thank you so much for stopping by today - enjoy your wonderful weekend!

Peace, Love, Joy

Hi Everyone! It's almost the weekend (yea) and the rain is coming down in buckets! UGH!  Welcome fall and the next 5-6 months of rainy, miserable weather out here in B.C.  I hate the rain :<  It is so depressing and dark (and wet).  I would so rather have a dumping of snow.  Eventhough it may be a pain to drive in or to get around in, at least it is bright and clean and fun to play in! 

I have a layout to share with you today that is welcoming the holiday season (a little early, I know but if the malls can get their Christmas stuff out then so can I)!  Bo Bunny's Mistletoe collection is full of gorgeous, bold and bright colours - perfectly suited for all your holiday photos.
