This was my first time ever playing with the Zva Creative gems!! Oh, they are soooo pretty and fun to design with!
Here is my fist card:
I started out with one of the smaller gem clusters, since it was my first time using them! The butterfly is from the set TAKE FLIGHT, the frame is from SWANKY SENTIMENTS, and the sentiment is from the APRIL GREENHOUSE SOCIETY, all from TECHNIQUE TUESDAY.
My second card:
I was ready to move on to one of the big gem designs! So pretty! I again used the butterfly from TAKE FLIGHT, and the sentiment is from SIMPLY YOU, both from TECHNIQUE TUESDAY.
