When I feel a bit under the weather, it's actually doing a little something for someone and hopefully making them smile which brightens my mood. I find that focusing on someone else, instead of just myself, helps forget my own miseries, a little bit anyway…
So tonight, even if I have a backlog of emails and hundreds of things to do, I just wanted to play with my paint shop pro (I can't work with Photoshop to save my life) and do something a little bit creative: a little banner for my friend Catherine. Her blog is called Perfectly Polished. I think she likes as she has just adopted it :)
This is the before:
and this is the after:
I am still a bit mift about the whole zumba trauma and probably won't go to one of these zumba classes in a hurry but I feel a little chirpier.
While I'm showing off, this a simple banner I did for LouLou’s Blog. The brief was something simple, which goes with the existing background and with flowers and a bit of pink.
and this is a little banner/header I did for Miss Lori.
Again, this nothing special, very simple but different. It matches her love of pink, zebra and features one of my favourite pictures of her. I had so much fun playing around with her banner.
I can't imagine why she didn't pick this one, can you? ;) Love you sweetie xx
Fancy a header for your blog? I am not the best with taking photos but I can cook up something basic and simple for you if you don't have a banner/header at all or if you fancy a change. Let me know.
Have you had a good day?

I am most disappointed she didn't run with the latter one I feel it captures lori very well :P haha jokes you've done a great job with them all and sucks that zumba was pants :( xx
I think those banners look great! I especially love the first one, but that's because I'm very partial to poppies :) I even picked up some and put them in a book to dry, hope they will keep some color and I can later use them to decorate something :)
If you have time and don't mind, could you take a look at my blog? I actually have 2 blogs, and if I had to pick one it will be Strawberry Kimono one since I don't have a header at all there.
Thank you very much in advance! :) :) :)
Ha ha, that last banner is great. I probably would have gone with that one :D
@adrienne @robyn haha thank you.
lori actually went for this jokey banner for about 1 hour or 2 hours. I chuckled so hard while I was doing it haha
@Lyuba-chan yeah no problem. I'll have a look at them. Are you sure want to keep the existing layouts / wallpapers?
I will definitely ask you to be my design czar. And I will totally need a Lori 2.0 style banner.
What a clever ickle Poppet you are!!!
"Well Done"

Wow the first one is very pretty and elegant!
Clever, I have no idea how to do that at all.. my header at is off blazing fonts, and I like it enough to keep it for now. But I know who to run to should I ever need it ,-)

Hey gorgeous, I'm sorry you feel a bit low today, virtual hugs to you! I'd love a banner for my blog if you'd like to make one for me? Angie xx
if you get bored enough, I would gladly accept a new header xo
Those banners are brilliant, I love them all especially the perfectly polished one, it's so pretty. I love your kitty cat too...so cute :)
Hope you're feeling better soon :) Great headers! xxx
haha I did have that banner for a little while, I love it sooo funny lol, but the proper one is amazing I love it much more, everyone should stop laughing at my pink face :P
xx
Gorgeous! I esp love the first two. x
Hi The banners look great and I would like you to do one for me please *big puppy dogs eyes*
I'm sorry I didn't notice you replied cuz I forgot to subscribe... :( I wouldn't mind changing walpapers, or even layouts although I like things simple, but still easy to see.
Hi, i would love for you to make me a banner if you have any free time. I've been meaning to change mine for ages but i had major problems last time and ended up using polyvore, i'm not tech-minded at all and could do with some help!
