My 2012 ZVA Creative Layouts


I have been hooked on ZVA Creative.  A couple of years ago I won some of their products from a contest at A Cherry On Top.  I buy their goodies from Photo Scraps in Eldersburg Maryland, A Cherry On Top, and Scrapbook.com.  Bling and pearls really adds a nice something extra to my layouts.  Just look for yourself.



In this layout I used product # CR-03CA-116:

My layout "It's All About Family" with some ZVA Creative

I had a nice Sunday at home.  I didn't feel like going anywhere.  I slept late.  I created 1 layout.  Then I made breakfast.  While eating breakfast I watched a Denzel movie "Man on Fire".  I washed clothes.  I helped my son with his homework.  Then I made dinner.  And now I am just goofing off on Facebook and my blog. 

Here is the layout I made using My Minds Eye, ZVA Creative, and K and Company:

Me and My Beautiful Cat With Some Beautiful ZVA Bling

I had a nice day.  I got my beauty sleep.  My brother took Christian to go and play basketball and out to eat.  I bought some digital images for the 1st time.  I also went to Michael's to get some colored pencils to color my digital images that I was in clearance a couple of weeks ago.  My son loves drawing.  I bought him some artsy pencils that were on clearance.  When I got home I felt like doing a little scrappin.  There was a Let's Capture These Sketches sketch I wanted to do that inspired me.  Here it is:

 

I combined this sketch challenge with a scrapbook.com monochrome "black" challenge.  Here is what I came up with:
Here is the ZVA Creative bling that I used.  Beautiful bling for a beautiful layout.

Happy Mail From Birds of a Feather Kit Company


got some happy mail today from Birds of a Feather Kit Company.  This is what the email said......


Hi Monique!
 
Thank you for your application. I would love to extend a Guest Designer position to you for the month of December, 2012! You will receive your kit by mid-November and at that time you will also have the opportunity to purchase kit-extras at a 20% discount.
 
If for some reason December is NOT a good month for you, please let me know asap! Otherwise I will go ahead and announce you as a December Guest Designer.
 
Historically I have had a very hard time selling December kits, (I am assuming because it's the holidays, etc.), so in order to get the extra exposure I feel it will need, two guest designers were chosen for that month. I hope you don't mind sharing :)
 
If you have any questions at all, just ask! And so excited to have you on board!
 
 
am so excited about this news.  They have already announced the Guest Designers today on Facebook.  http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Birds-of-a-Feather-Kit-Co/129975560387827
 
Thanks Birds of a Feather for selecting me!
