Custom Blog Designs: custom graphic

While My Hands Are Full

Cassie is a repeat client who just had me redesign her While My Hands Are Full blog. She got a matching Etsy set go to along with the blog.

I am all of a sudden very busy with blog orders for teachers. Many have Teachers Pay Teachers shops that they want to promote. Having a custom looks goes a long way with generating traffic. I just completed a fun design for Randi of Teach It With Class.

Boys Galore!

Alison is a wonderful client who has me redesign her blog once a year. She's going to give birth to a baby boy soon, so her blog now has an all boys theme!

Traci Redone

Traci had me makeover her blog a few months ago and came back this week for an update because they just received the great news that they've been approved to adopt a little girl from China.

Beckoned by Books

Sherre just had me redesign her Beckoned by Books blog and create a bunch of meme graphics. I wish I had the time that she does to read!

New Baby Boy

Missy, a repeat client, just had a baby boy and had me create a blue & brown football themed blog for him.

Faith & Grace

Catherine who had me do a graphic for her before had me create a new look for her family blog. In leiu of a button, I created a sidebar graphic.

Doctor Mom

Jillian is a scientist mom who contacted me for a custom look for her Doctor Mom blog. She also had me create a special About Me graphic to match.

CBD is more than blogs!

Nearly all the work I do are blog designs, but I can do other graphics such as invitations, photo cards, digital scrapbook pages, business cards, Twitter backgrounds, etc.

I just completed a birthday party invite for Alexis's son.

I also recently created a custom yearbook page for Amy's daughter.

Catching Up

I've been juggling several clients lately. I get overwhelmed when I am so busy. I think I would do better to work on one client at a time and not move on to the next one until I am done...but I often wait on emails from clients so I need to jump around so I don't fall way behind. I've had several hours this afternoon to get lots of clients crossed off my list. I hope that frees up some time to email waiting clients this evening.

I just completed a new blog design for repeat client Dimari. She's been waiting to adopt from China and recently accepted a referral of an adorable little boy. So her blog went from Ladybugs & Dragonflies to Cowboys & Dragonflies.

I also worked with Susan, whose blog I did in February. She wants to update her blog seasonally. She did nearly all the designing this time and I did all the installation and link updates. Head on over to Blackberry Cottage and leave Susan some luv for doing a great job on her own design!!

I also created some banners & buttons for upcoming blog events for Kelli of 3 Boys & a Dog, updated Meghan's header with new ultrasound pics, and created a graphic for Color Me Home to print on tshirts. If you haven't seen the Color Me Home coloring books...you should check them out here!

Cute Elephants & such

Kimberly and her hubby run an orphanage in Kenya and she wanted a new blog design to reflect their life in Kenya. This is what I came up with.

Other work this week has included...
Updating header pics for Alyson & Ford.

Creating a new graphic for Crystal.

Making a frame for Alison, who used her referral coupon. Look at her adorable newborn son!

And making a frame for Catherine's blog.

Crystal & Co.

Crystal asked me to create a new look for her blog that reflected a diva surrounded by chaos. I think I was able to capture all the cleaning, laundry, and busy 5 boys in her house!

She also got a matching Twitter background!
