A new bloggy look

For ages now I've wanted to change up my blog header a bit to reflect the season and update the pictures of my growing-faster-than-weeds offspring. 

And tonight I finally did just that.  Ahh.  It was so refreshing to ignore the household duties and to waste an hour dinking around with colors, fonts, and photos. 

With the able assistance of picasa and this stellar tutorial by Clover Lane I created the header above. 

What do you think?  Do you like it? 

Next up: serious blog layout changes.  Stay tuned!

Nice job alicia! I've been wanting to do something similar, but haven't taken the time to do it yet. I'll have to read the tutorial.

I love the new header. How has your garden done this summer?

Love it! I wish I found dinking around with computer stuff fun & refreshing. I think I may have to pay you to do it for me :-)

It looks great! I love that tutorial; it was sooooo helpful for a non-computer-geek like me in designing a header! Which reminds me, I should update mine when I get home; it could use a new look! :)

Very nice! I will have to check out that tutorial bc I've had a hard time getting anything together that wasn't super simple, and I'd like pictures in the header.
