New blog design for Karen Wilson!
Hi!
I'd like to share with you a new design made for Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Karen Wilson. Karen is currently away on a mission trip to Africa, but she'll return shortly and will start posting new projects on her new blog soon! So make sure you go back to her blog again when she starts posting to see her lovely artwork!
Karen has custom in-banner navigation that matches her banner nicely. Heather Wright-Porto at www.blogsbyheather.com coded her nav bar. Karen wanted a design with lots of white space and she requested a floating banner. We decided that it would look nice to have a simple white, embossed polka dot background – It looks like her background was run through the Big Shot machine with the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder, doesn't it? Karen's colors are Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, Pear Pizzazz and Daffodil Delight!

Danielle’s Photo Show Header is a hit!
Be D*Dazzled over at Danielle's new blog!
Australian Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Danielle May asked for a clean, up-to-date design for her blog! The sample blogs that she told me she liked (in her Design Questionaire) all featured photos in the banner. She wanted something similar, but with some pop. So, we came up with a Photo slideshow banner! How cool is that???!!!!
I took photographs from her art gallery and professionally color-toned them, brightened them up. Then I created the Photo Show Banner.
I mentioned to Danielle that next year she can have me change up the images for a small fee to keep the pictures up to date! A nice professional, low maintenance design!

Her blog is Taylor Made!
Suzanne Taylor has a lovely new blog in the Stampin' Up! colors Marina Mist, Riding Hood Red, Soft Suede, Early Espresso, Choc Chip and Blushing Bride. So pretty. She has a vintage look with a little bit of bling in the "Vintage Vogue" style flowers and nav bar. The Marina Mist flourish in the banner (which is echoed in the sidebar buttons) is inspired by the Kind Thoughts Brocade in the Definitely Decorative catalog.
Suzanne is a customer of Amy Celona at www.websbyamy.com

Simple, cute design for Catherine!
Good afternoon!
Today I'd like to share a blog I finished back in May. This one is that of UK demonstrator Catherine Troll. She wanted a simple design in pastel colors – not too much fuss. Catherine wanted oval navigation buttons under her banner. So we worked up something simple with a polka dot bashful blue background and Heather Wright Porto at www.blogsbyheather.com programmed them.
Here is Catherine's banner:

New blog design for Joyce Sims!
I'm sharing with you the new blog of Joyce Sims. She asked for help with a blog design and I finished this one about a month ago. She really likes the butterfly paper in the Stampin' Up! Sweet Pea Designer Series Paper pack. So I came up with a similar pattern as that one!
Joyce's blog was setup by Heather Wright Porto at www.blogsbyheather.com

“Owl” ready for the new Stampin’ Up! year!
Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Julie Edmonds has a new design for the new Stampin' Up! year. She asked me to make her banner in the same style as the name plate on the new SU! 2010-2011 catalog! She also asked me to make her an owl similar to the new Stampin' Up! owl punch! This is what we came up with! Fun! Julie is a twice-repeat customer!
