First, I want to thank all of you for the emails and get well wishes...and for the funny comments too. You all made me laugh and that's just what I needed. I'm doing MUCH better. The swelling is down, I'm not as sore, and the bruises are starting to heal. I even did a little stamping today!! Whoo-hoo!
My cool new blog design was done by the amazingly talented and super sweet Jami Bova!! She just got done creating and uploading everything for me....she even set up the three columns (because I was too chicken to do it). When I saw all the great banners she was creating out in blog land, I emailed her. I said I wanted a cool background to go with it, gave her some ideas as to the colors and the "fade" thing, told her I wanted something with a vine......then I threw some doozies on her by asking if there was any way to incorporate bees and peanuts into the design. I know!!....WEIRDO combination...but hey, peanutbee is my screen name. I also asked her if there was any way to get my daughter's peanutbee artwork into the banner.
Looks what SHE did! She's amazing!!
Thank you SO MUCH, Jami!! I can't thank you enough!
Here's a link to Jami's Studio page where you can find pricing, information on the process, and see pictures of other designs she has done. She was SO AWESOME to work with. She knows her stuff!!
