Have you seen my way cool new header??
I love it! As many of you know, I was really, really wanting a new blog design around the end of last year. I entered every contest I could find, to no avail. I hoped my husband would take the hint and fund a blog make-over for Christmas. Nope!
So, Christmas night, I sat up really late after everyone else had gone to bed and downloaded a new template from Our Blogger Templates. I really liked it, but something still wasn't just right. Then, my friend, Karen, suggested that I go with the red, white and black colors in my blog button. We were getting closer, but it still wasn't quite right. Karen and I both agreed that I needed an awesome header. But, I know absolutely nothing about making headers.
I was thrilled when, a few weeks later, I noticed that my favorite blog designer, Darcy of Graphically Designing, had her design queue back open. I jumped right on that! And, I'm so glad I did. Darcy did a fabulous job! She was incredibly patient and easy to work with as she created exactly what I had in mind...which was a really impressive feat considering that I didn't know exactly what I had in mind. I think it turned out fabulous!
Thanks, Darcy!

Oh, see? Gina, you just made my day. A chalkboard look was totally what we (you know, me and Darcy, since I was sitting right beside her helping...NOT! lol) were going for! I'm glad to know that the effect I/we were hoping for is what's coming across. Yay!
ReplyDeleteI love it.....Love the colors

I LOVE it! It's a perfect fit!
ReplyDeleteI really like the new look! It looks sharp, yet welcoming.
ReplyDeleteLooks great! I know this was something that you really wanted, so I'm glad that you have it. I know that it's not originally what you talked about (the complex design that scared me away from offering to do it for you -- LOL), but I really love this.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny that Darcy did it for you, because I signed up about four weeks ago to get on her queue for a blog makeover, which she's working on now. :)
Looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteIt does look great! And I'm guessing you'll be able to change out the pictures too as the kids grow, right? :)
