I have no idea how to make fancy banners, icons and other such things. I wish I did as I have so many ideas of what I'd like to do with them but wouldn't know where to start.
In my quest of looking for great banners I came across flybirdflydesigns and requested custom orders. Its always brilliant waiting so anxiously to see what she comes up with and so far I've always had such positive praise on my blogs because the banners are just so uplifting. For someone who always used to change their layouts, I find I don't want to as it just looks fresh and rewarding each time.... maybe its just me!
flybirdflydesigns is really friendly as she keeps you up to date with whats going on. Its only this time with my Strawberries and Buttercups banner did things take a little longer because there was a slight mix up and then I wanted her to recreate a different banner to what she did make even though I really loved the one she made. So now I have a banner, reading rating which you can see used on all my book reviews and a profile image.
Lastly have you noticed I found my burstofbubbles banner. I searched high and low for this banner and did not find it which is why I decided it was time for a new blog but I've really been missing it despite this blog taking off nicely. Well last night I was moving things around in my inbox into folders and tada, there were all my banners, profile pictures, buttons and what not... oh how irritating but wonderful too as I took my blog out of being deleted and added the banner back. After lots of thinking I've decided to have a third blog, oh my! I've no idea how I will cope with that yet but I decided it was time to separate my projects from this blog as most of my projects require a daly posting but are stuck to only being posted on a Friday and then things end up so photo heavy that it won't load properly. I hope to do a project a month so keep your fingers crossed that I do that and if you see any wonderful projects that I can try let me know.
Such a pretty new header you got, I just LOVE the colors :)
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Signe
Thank Signe :)
ReplyDeletelove your banners they are so bright and happy
ReplyDeleteIts what I hope for it to be as its here to stay for a long time.
DeleteI love this header, but I have a friend who can change mine, as in adding bits and pieces to it. I'm really not sure about the one that I have now. I might tweak it around a bit. Do you think a header reflects a blog? I'm not too sure about these things. Yours reminds me of a beautiful Summer day!
ReplyDeleteI really like the one you have now but I guess it depends on what mood one person is in and tastes change. I think its nice to have a good banner on your blog as its the first thing people see when they come on your page. Of course though its not necessary since its not something everyone wants to have.
Delete(I didn't know on which of your blogs to post a reaction, so I'm just gonna post it here ;-) )
ReplyDeleteBut wow, what a great idea to use a WTJ as a birthday gift! I'm sure the birthday girl liked it a lot :) And yes, buy one yourself, it's so inspiring!
P.S. I really like your banners!
Thanks for the comment, its ok here as each blog is different in its way and will attract the person most interested to that topic. I am tempted to get a journal for myself too but with doing the 100 ideas I might wait a bit until I get one.
ReplyDeletethe new header is lovely! Whenever I have some money I might order one myself. Yours looks like a beautiful summer day, perfect for you.
ReplyDeleteI received your envelope. It went under in the business of the days. Thank you again so much! I am speechless and very grateful. <3
You should consider one as she's really nice and friendly. The quality of them are great and they always look so good as you can see from mine.
DeleteI'm so glad you received my envelope and liked everything :).
