New Layout!

Hey all,
Just a quick post to point out the obvious (ha!). I hadn't really planned on making any changes to my blog, but I came across a few free websites for fonts and clip art, so I decided to see if I could find some free backgrounds as well.

I found www.shabbyblogs.com that offers all kinds of cool backgrounds and buttons for free! So I decided to see if I could figure out how to make the changes. It turned out to be surprisingly easy to add the background I decided on. The tough (and time consuming) part was making sure the layout lined up. As you can see I also added a new header as well.

My goal was to make my blog look more put together and inviting.  However I do kind of miss the pop of the yellow and blue, I had previously.

I would love to hear some feedback from those who are reading this. What do you think of the colour scheme? Do you like the background or is it too boring?

Any tips are greatly appreciated.

Hope you all have a great day.

  1. I personally really like the new layout Melissa. You did a great job choosing it. And that new header is also nicely designed. It all definitely gives your blog a new look :)

  2. I used Shabbyblogs too, but I haven't changed my layout in a looooong time. Yours looks great. Someday maybe I'll get motivated....

    1. Thank you Annette. I was afraid that changing it would be too difficult for me to understand but thankfully there were step by step instructions.
      I like the purple colour of your blog. :)
