Zva Creative
The French are glad to die for love.
They delight in fighting duels.
But I prefer a man who lives and gives expensive jewels.
A kiss on the hand may be quite continental,
But diamonds are a girl's best friend!
Every time I think of bling or rhinestones while paper crafting, this song sung by Marilyn Monroe immediately pops into my head. We had the amazing honor of playing with Zva Creative product this month so you can imagine how many times this song came to mind! What girl doesn’t like something shimmery and sparkly? And even if you don’t, there is no need to worry because Zva offers so much more than just pretty bling!
Come along with me and see how our designers showcased this beautiful product and prepare to be inspired to want to use all of this beauty on your own projects!
