Yes, I've Done It AGAIN...

Yes, yes. I've done it again.

Re-designed my blog. I don't know, I just didn't like the feel of the previous one...that balloon kid got really old really fast. Plus I just LOVE designing...and you won't believe it!

I bought my VERY first digital scrapbooking kit! Yes, you read it right: I BOUGHT it.


Haha. I'm very proud. Best six dollars I've ever spent. ;-)

Now, I know that the look isn't PERFECT and it doesn't look very professional (yes, Mom, it's "imagery". Inside joke. )...buuut. You know I have Gimp, right? Yeah. Can't do a ton with it - plus I'm just not that great.

Someday, I WILL get photoshop CS4 and lightroom...

...buuut it won't be for a while. Don't have a thousand dollars lying around collecting dust. Anyways. You like the look?

Comment and tell me what you think...I saved xcfs of all the files, so if you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. ;-)

Now off to watch The Matrix all by my lonesome...my usual movie-watching buddy (my bro) is gone on a sleepover. Not that I'm complaining...I love the movie. ;-)

Hahahaha :). Its great; Very clean, antique/feminine, and just nice & simple.

On top of it, that same exact blue-aqua- is my favorite color, so I think it looks gorgeous on your blog!

Nice work!!

Yep, it is definitely you-ish. But I think the header needs a little bit more.

Kailyn Nickel said...

It's beautiful! Great job! But I agree with Alex: I think the header needs just a little bit more of something. I like the clean look, but there's a lot of empty white space. I don't know, maybe some cool photos, more color, or a bolder embellishment of some sort, to add more visual interest. But other than that, fantastic job! You're really talented, Bekah! =D

Love,
Kailyn

Personally, I LOVE the new look! I really like simple and sweet... Hehe. I do agree that the header might need a little something more... Maybe a background color?

God bless!

Hi- I don't actually know how in the world I'm doing this, since me and my dearest Charlie Franklin are buried on his alien planet, deader than dead fish, but I love you new blog. It looks wonderful, and totally like your style. :) I also love our recent chat, that was amazing, no scratch that, WE are amazing, and without our caps lock buttons, we would be nowhere (that looks like now-here :) I loooooooove you, Berky-derk!!!!
