{Just...because) April Diva Inspiration Hop

Hi everyone,

and happy April!! Have you ever been to Palm Springs in Cali? I went for the first time last weekend because friends of mine were having their wedding reception there and can I tell you....it was amazing!!! If you ever want to get away for a little mini weekend vacation Palm Springs is definitely worth the trip. The town is really pretty and they have some great shops there. The food is really good and the weather was perfect. Pair that with Pool, hot tub, friends and margaritas and you're in for one awesome weekend. :)
I did not want to go back to work but here we are.. and here's my card!!

This month we're being challenged to use Chevrons!!! So I used the chevrons from the set Borderline, my sentiment is from Take Note and the little calendar was done using Calendar Countdown. I used DP from two different MME's paper pads: Follow Your Heart and On the Bright Side. Add some glitter, some clips, button, twine and paperclip for the little extra special touch and that's about it. :)

Enough about me and more about you! Here's how you can win some fabulous Verve and it's as easy as leaving a comment or playing along...check out the details:
 So in addition to a comment prize hidden along the hop, you can play along with the challenge and link up your creation for a chance to win another prize!
Our April challenge is Chic Chevrons:


Chevrons are the new polka-dots! Get groovy and use this popular pattern somewhere on your creation. Whether you draw inspiration from the graphic or zig-zag off on your own, just show us some chic chevrons!
