It makes me HAPPY.
I used PicMonkey which is an online photo editing program. It's free!!! FrEe!! frEE!! FRee!! Yes, it's free. I always like that word. You can do basic things with it, and if you want to do fancier stuff you have to pay. But I didn't. I found the instructions on how to make a blog banner here. I also found this wonderful Etsy shop where you can buy digital scrapbook papers and icons, etc which all match. I felt that $3 for 13 different papers and 10 different little icons I will be able to use many times was fair. Then I found out the lady who makes these is a single mom so now I feel even better about it. It took about one minute to download the package after I purchased it, which was great since I lack the virtue to patience.
Here is to new looks!!!
Now I think I am going to drink some hot chocolate to celebrate.
