I also would love some input. What kinds of things do you like to see? What should I do more of? Or less of? Don't be afraid to be honest. I post for myself a lot, but the real joy is seeing that people (sometimes) read it. I know my family does. Usually I get the laptop out, pull up my blog, and hover eagerly over their shoulders, licking their faces like a little puppy, until I'm satisfied that they've read everything.
I'm also thinking of renaming it. Unfortunately, while I'm great at sewing and somewhat witty and long stories, I really stink at titles. I think I've spent at least a year of my life coming up with titles for scrapbook pages. Most of the time at crops, I sit around staring and eating M&Ms, trying to come up with something clever and fun. One-liners or less are not my talent. I have to have at least 20 words to come up with something decent, and that's kinda long for a blog name. Please, help me out and give me a suggestion!

I'm also going to offer my very first prize. It's easy to win. Just leave me a comment and I will put your name into a random drawing for this purse I made. Drawing will be held one week from today (May 21st).
Gorgeous purse! Just to say I really like your blog layout, a personalised banner goes a long way to making it memorable and scrappers always have such great banners! The only thing I would say if you were thinking about it, is please please don't put a music gadget that automatically starts playing!
ReplyDeleteBlog change is always good, I can't wait to see what you come up with!
ReplyDeleteI stink at titles too. My blog didn't have one for a long time. I do think a blog banner will go a long way. I also love to see photos on blogs. I think photos draw me in more than anything. After I see them, I want to read more. I would also add the followers gadget to your sidebar. I'm going to follow you now. Your purse is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove the purse.
ReplyDeleteI like quick tags on blogs. So that I can jump to any post that has a new cake, or a new hand made dress. KWIM?
Gemma, I admit that I don't like the music thing either, so you are safe. ;) They always take forever to load and I've usually got enough noise around here already. Although I have found some great artists that way.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous purse... I'm going to leave my blog suggestions on Peas to bump your OP.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what the New Look is :)
ReplyDeleteLove the new look on your blog!!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the blog change, yours is always so fun to read. I just love following your little family!

WOW, it looks great, you already changed it, huh! I like those tags, I'm going to have to figure out how to do that. I'm also going to have to find a way to turn my music off, lol! I know it's a pain, but it's really there for me. There must be a way to have it there, but not ON until you ask it to go on, anyone know?
ReplyDeleteLOve the purse! But everything you make is always so beautiful, right down to those kiddos of yours!
ReplyDeletei love the new title! :) Oooh and prizes? yes please! But you know i leave my random comments even when prizes are in the equation. :) Love the new look!

I like popping in and reading about your scrapbooking, cakes, and crafts. And the kids...great stories; they are very cute. Love your new banner; I think your titles are great. My two cents on music with blogs: thumbs down...I like to web surf and also create in my craftroom in silence.
ReplyDeleteLike the new look :o)
ReplyDeleteI gotta win that bag, it is totally adorable !! x
Love the purse and LOVE your new background! :)
ReplyDeleteSuper cute purse and really cute background on the blog! I've always liked your avitar photo on Two Peas. Such a cute hairdo!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute bag! I love a good bag.
ReplyDeleteWow. I found your blog through a thread at two peas requesting the link to a dress you made. Holy cow you are talented!
ReplyDeleteLove the digi papers! Thanks bunches for the burst of inspiration! :)
Ok, so I know I missed the boat for the drawing to win, but what are the odds of me purchasing a bag such as this from you? Also, what size is it?
