Meridy's Blog Design Announcement

EDIT: it wasn't working at first because I had somehow copied the the html code wrong. But it works now! Please let me know if you run into problems! It's easy I promise!

A lot of you know that I love designing blogs. I just started a my own design blog and have posted backgrounds using paper and elements that you can all download for free at http://www.shabbyprincess.com/. The problem is that Shabby Princess likes you to use their free downloads for personal use only, however, I can share some things friends and family members. Also, they want absolutely no commercialism in contact with their products. So....I want to share my free blog designs with you but I have to keep the blog private, as I don't particularly enjoy getting into trouble. And if you want to use the backgrounds, you can not have any sort of advertisements, or anything like them on your blog. Personally, I think some of these limitations are silly. Free is free is free in my book.

Anyway the point is all of you are invited to see my blog. I don't know all of your emails, so if you want an invite please let me know!!! I am just going to go ahead and invite some of you. And please don't feel like you have to use my blog backgrounds if you are an invited member. It's all just for fun. I just love to do it. It makes me happy and it fulfills this creative need I have, and if some of you want to take advantage of that, all the better!

A lot of you use designs from http://www.cutestblogontheblock.blogspot.com/. My blog works just like that site. It is so easy! (This is a lot easier than when we tried to design your blog over the phone Emily.) I just have spring designs up at the moment, but I'm going to put designs up there for all of the holidays. That's going to be fun! The ones up right now are girly, so I am also going to try to put up some more gender neutral designs in the future as well. I can design titles to put in your headers, but you'll have to let me know if you want that done. My blog is http://www.shabbychicblogs.blogspot.com/ I put a link in the sidebar as well. So please, if you want an invite let me know. Leave me a comment or something!

Here is a preview of some of them:

I really like your designs. I would love to use them except one of the main reasons I have a blog is to drive traffic to my business'. So I don't think that I qualify, but good job with what you are doing.

Meridy said...

I totally added you guys! There is a lot more room for more readers. ;)

LeAnn said...

You are right, I could do it on Kendi's blog. Please add me, leannbarnes@mail.com.

I used to just look at scrap book paper that I like and then change it a little in photoshop, but that takes way too much time. I need to start using templates.

So, I love my new background and I am excited you got it to work. Does it cost money to make these then? If you wouldn't mind you can create a cute header for me when you are feeling better:) I totally love your taste in things so I know you can do a really good job!

Meridy,
Yes, much easier than the two hours I kept you on the phone that day. You are so nice to share your time and talents with us. I'll be watching for updates on new backgrounds. Very nice job!
