Tina Dean Designs

Have you ever heard of Tina Dean Designs?
If you haven't you should seriously head over now and check her site out! I have seen the button for this sit all over blogland over the past year or so. When she contacted me wanting me to just basically streamline her design I was so incredibly honored that she came to me.
I think it is so simple, yet tasteful!
What do you think?

Blinged & Brilliant

I was contacted a couple of weeks ago by a super sweet girl named Maria. She needed a blog design and needed it fast! So we did a rush order (Did you know that I offer a rush order fee?) and within a few days her new design was complete!
This was her original color pallete. We did veer off of it by just a little. But I love how it came out. She purchased the avatar and we changed how she and her little puppy looked to make it fit Maria a little more. But in the end I truly believe that design matched it's name. It is truly Blinged and Brilliant!

Forever Lovely

I am so excited to finally be posting this blog design on here and adding it to my portfolio. Jennifer and I have been working on it for a while and I am truly in love with the final product.
She wanted something so that her photos took the main stage, and she wanted to incorporate roses. We looked all over but kept coming across these frames sold by Reani Designs. She loved the details of the top right frame, but the flowers of the middle frame. So we married the two! From there on we tried to keep everything pretty simple. 
I have to tell you that I truly love this design and the only word that I keep thinking of to describe it is LOVELY! This design truly came out to suit the personality of it's blogger and what she was looking for!
Make sure that you all head over to Jennifer's blog and check the design out for yourself. While your there just stay a while and get to know her. She is an amazing woman!

The Eclectic Grab Bag

I was recently contacted by Sabrina from The Eclectic Grab Bag saying that she needed a new design and in a hurry! She was going to BlogHer Pro this Thursday and wanted a more streamlined look before she went. So we utilized the rush fee and got her in quickly!  She was really partial to a design that she had done, but it just wasn't quite the way she envisioned it. So we really took the design that she made and just tweaked it.
It was fun and a somewhat learning experience because I haven't ever made a blog design that had a color all throughout. But Sabrina worked with me when I needed a few minutes and she was so easy to talk to! I had a blast working with her and making her already great design into what she really wanted it to be!
Make sure you head over and check out her new design!
Plus, since she was going to BlogHer Pro she needed new business cards that were more coordinated with her design. So she got these as well!
I hope she gets lots of business from these! I am anxiously awaiting her text to see how they come out when she gets them from the printers! 

Ps. If you don't personally have a printer that you love, Moo.com is an amazing place to have them printed! You may spend a little bit more, but the quality is AMAZING! I just got a card in the mail from a client I recently made them for and they are phenomenal! I do know where I will be going to get mine if I ever decide to print some out! Or if you are in Canada there is an amazing printer called The Printing House that does just as amazing, if not better work.  If you go with these two companies you seriously can not go wrong and will have some amazing business cards that you can call your own! Quality is so important when it represents your company!

Violet Imperfection

Haven't heard from me in a while huh? Well have no fear! I have had several projects in the works. As of yesterday I finished a design for the super sweet Leslie!
Working with Leslie was so fun. It was one of those things where we may have started doing one thing and then we would change it and both be on the same page before we even knew what the other was thinking. I love it when I feel like my client and I are in sync with one another. Her design is so fun. I love the twist on chevron that we did along with the colors. It really is fun and it just kind of pops off of the page for you without being overwhelming. 
Make sure you head over and see the design live. While your there say hello! I know she would love to hear from you!!!

The Fowler Family

So, I finished this design a while back, but I have had to wait for the right time to finally add it to my portfolio.
I was contacted by Barbara a few months ago and she wanted a fun place to be able to blog about her family. It was to be a new blog so we would start from scratch. I love it when I am able to give new bloggers a place to express themselves!!!I love everything about this design. She picked some pretty fun colors, but the way they were used makes this blog really soft and welcoming. 
I love this blog design and can't wait to see her posts when she starts to blog on it!

Golden Tresses

Yesterday I transferred the design over that Jennifer and I just finished working on.
To me this design is a fun pop of color! She wanted something simple, professional, yet fun!
What do you think? Did we pull it off?
Make sure you go see it live and say Hello!
