Spellbinders 2014 W CHA Catalogue project: Die D-Lites
Good morning friends! Today I'm here to share with you a project that is featured in Spellbinders new catalogue! Did you know you can view it online? Check it out here to see all of the AMAZING new releases!! Just click where it says "Download a free copy"!!
I had the opportunity to create some projects for this catalogue!! You can see this first one on page 35. My assignment colour was purple. Oh dear, i thought! NOT a huge fan of purple, but I took on the challenge! I was quite pleased with the results, if I do say so myself! I LOVED the dies I got to work with, and was able to create something that fit perfectly!! The Die D-Lites are probably some of my favourite dies to work with!!
Check it out!!
Aren't all those blooms beautiful!!!??? I cut them out using Core'dinations Kraft Core card stock, and sanded them! Love the effect!!
Here is a little walk thru video I created to help you see the creative journey I took in creating this page.
NOTE: I see now that I neglected to mention the SPRIGS set that I used in this project as well. See this die set here...
Thanks for watching!! I love to hear from you!
Until Next Time...
Happy Scrapping!!

Zva Creative January DT Blog Hop
Happy New Year to you! Zva Creative and our talented Design Team welcome you to our January blog hop! We are very excited to kick off the new year and to have you join us today. We hope you are inspired all of the beautiful work that we are about to share!
In creating this project, I used some of Zva's New Release product.
To create the bouquet, I bunched the rose buds together with the stems still attached. I adhered them together using a small piece of clear tape, then added the bow! How perfect with Valentines day approaching so quickly!!
Other supplies:
Xyron Mega Runner
Core-dinations LOVE AMOUR cardstock, by Teresa Collins
Bazzill card stock,black
May Arts Ribons
Glitter glue, sanding block, hot glue gun
And as a bonus— today’s hop is EXTRA special because you will get to see more of Zva’s newest products that were released at the Craft and Hobby Association tradeshow earlier this month!
The 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.
Let’s kick off the hop with a beautiful layout by our French designer Carole Maurin.
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!
The Blog Hop starts today, January 27th and runs through midnight US Eastern Standard Time on Tuesday, January 28th.
***Prizes***
Hidden on FIVE of the designer’s blogs is a Zva Creative prize package! Winners will be randomly chosen after the hop is over. 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.
The 5 winners will be announced on Wednesday, January 29th on Zva Creative’s Facebook page. We will do our best to notify each winner, but it's best if you can pop in to Zva’s page on Wednesday to see if you are a winner!
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 Facebook page and “like” our page or leave a comment there to tell us that you stopped by if you already like us there!
Nicole Martel. Enjoy!
Thank you for joining us!
P.S. Mark your calendar to join us again on February 24th for our next Zva blog hop!

Elegant THINKING OF YOU card
Good morning! It'd a dark and rainy day here, so it's a fabulous day for creating! But first I have to get my table cleaned... man, what a mess!!
Thanks to all of you who have viewed my video's and left comments or messaged me! It is very much appreciated! I'm doing the video's for you, so I want them to be useful to you!
I also am planning to do some cards and other projects with less dies on them. I need to remember that not everyone has an entire Spellbinders(TM) collection! :) So you will see some projects coming up using less dies and perhaps more techniques! Sounds like fun, eh?
So for today's project, I created an elegant card. I used a pretty general sentiment so that it could be used for almost anything!
Spellbinders:
Bazill Basics Paper: Cardstock
Canvas Corp: Tissue Stock (tissue paper)
Websters Papers: Patterned Paper
Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko: Goosebumps, Dew Drops Versa Magic Inks (Aegean Blue, Spanish Olive)
Want2Scrap Baby Bling (Lecreme)
Stampin Scrappin: Sentiment Stamp
Xyron Mega Runner
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: Foam Tape
