Dressing your blog

Today I wanted to share with you a very talented friends blog, her name is Leslie Avila.  This gal is so talented it's crazy gewd!! 

She dabbles in paper, paints, mixed media and fabric and to be honest I don't think there is anything she can't do!  We met about a year ago and although we live a few hours away from each other she is a dear friend!  Well, she made me a beautiful cuff bracelet that you can see on her blog HERE.  I had wanted to make her something for her birthday, then for Christmas and well time got away from me!  So, I decided that a blog makeover would be another way I could gift her something.  So, hello this is just another way you can use the incredible digital elements from Rhonna Designs!  

Here is a peek at Leslie's blog but I do hope that you will head on over and see for yourself and drop her a note to say hello HERE.  *I have to say that viewing the blog via mobile or iPad will not show how fab it turned out.  If I do say so myself *wink

I used items from the following kits when dressing Leslie's blog.

Kiss Me Background Kit

Kiss Me Pieces Kit

Kiss Me Border Kit

Rhonna has a great Valentine Bundle Set that include those kits above and MORE that link to the bundle set is HERE! And so really that is the way to go for a great savings! And if you are new to my blog or Rhonna's you should go and visit Rhonna's Blog too because she has some amazing Valentine DIY projects up on her blog. Lots of hybrid crafting, seriously it's all delish you have to go look HERE.

And lastly, if you are on FB and are using the new Timeline look (which we will all end up with soon) you will want to check out this Kiss Me Cover Page Kit HERE. It's an easy way to dress up your Timeline for the Valentine holiday. And actually with any of her digital elements you can create your own.  Yes, I have created some myself, love changing it up!  In fact I need to dress up my blog header too! This week for sure, after all it's has to have a touch of Valentine right *wink

Here is my FB Cover photo that I created with elements from her Kiss Me lines but in her kit she has some all ready for you to use and she even has some that you can add photos to!

 I hope to have a DIY project up this week so check back soon.  And I'm also working on an idea for a video screen tutorial for those of you who want to learn how to decorate your own blog using Rhonna's designs, Photoshop Elements and Blogger.  Any interest in a tutorial?

Thanks for stopping in today!

My OLW for 2012

If you don't already know about Ali Edward's One Little Word then just go HERE for more info.  Most folks who are sharing their OLW via their blog usually have an explanation as to why they chose it.  I did last year (found HERE) but this year at this time I am not.  I had two words in mind and this one chose me.  I hope to share more on it as time goes by but, for now this is all I got.

 Won't you join us?!

And what about Project Life you ask? Well, I'm participating in that this year too. Last year was a major fail for me. So, I am going to try again and this year I am DETERMINED to finish it! You can learn more on Becky Higgin's Project life HERE

Hope to get back to my blogging and creating, so see you back here soon. *I wouldn't mind it too bad if you sent a little creative mojo my way though *wink

The art piece I used above is from Rhonna Designs A Year To Follow Your Heart Printable Kit found HERE . Since it's a printable kit you can print the pages out and make your own journal! How cute would these be in your Project Life sprinkled throughout!
