Paper Hugs

Zva Creative August DT Blog Hop!

Zva Creative and our talented Design Team welcomes you to join us this month for a blog hop that we feel is always extra special!  We thought it would be more fun to add even more chances to win our blog hop prize!  See details below.

The summer trade show was in July, which means brand new Zva Creative products.  So please keep an eye out for them at your local craft stores.

As you know, Zva offers so 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. 

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, 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...YAY! 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, August 29th and runs through midnight US Eastern Standard Time on Tuesday, August 3oth and the 5 winners will be announced on Wednesday, August 31st on each of the five winning blogs. The full list will be found on Kim Hughes‘s blog as well (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.

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

 

Sooo, you have FOUR chances on each blog to win one of our FIVE prizes!  That's technically OVER 50 chances :)

Please join us on Monday for our Zva design team blog hop.  I always look forward to seeing what our team shares!

*FF The Nobel Peace Prize medal depicts 3 naked men with their hands on each others shoulders* (ummmgross)

number 4

...and another Zva Creative creation.

*FF To "testify" was based on men in the Roman court swearing to a statement made by swearing on their testicles* (ok, so that made me a chuckle a little)

number 3

Here's another Zva Creative card :)

I hope you are enjoying your day.

*FF The name for Oz in "The Wizard of Oz" was thought up when the creator, Frank Baum, looked at his filing cabinet and saw A-N, and O-Z, hence "Oz."*

number 2...

k, so I re-worked some of my "old" cards - but oh my goodness...I wish I added Zva Creative crystals to them when I made them the first time...it adds such a fabulous touch!!

*FF The IRS employees tax manual has instructions for collecting taxes after a nuclear war* (wow)

 

summer CHA is close

July 19-21 to be exact.  (sigh) I will miss the show because I chose to attend my family reunion instead.  It was more important to me to introduce my new husband to all of my family who couldn't make it to our wedding in April.  I will be green with envy of those who are going.  I plan to be at the winter show though...can't wait!!  Starting today, and ending on July 22nd, I will share my CHA cards using NEW Zva Creative crystals (swoon) Our DT blog hop is scheduled for Monday, July 25th, hope you will join us :)

*FF A 42-foot sperm whale has about 7 tons of oil in it* (a whale of a ewwww)

c'mon, you missed my fun facts, didn't you?  :)
