Bloggy Spa

OK, so you’re not in Kansas anymore, but you’re still on Mammatalk. We’ve just been to the Bloggy spa. Had a few nips and tucks. Hopefully, nothing too noticeable…just looks like we’ve been on vacation, right?

Yes, that is me in the header with my little gals up to their usual Shenanigans. April over at April Showers did pretty me up a bit, however. Nothing like a little cartoony tummy tuck and Crayola magic. She even cut and colored my hair. No extra charge. Voila! A whole new me.

Thank you to April for taking the vision in my head and bringing it to life. Thank you also for your hard work, speedy and so thorough. Thank you for your creative touch. Most of all, thank you for your patience with my obsession over the telephone wire….

It needs to be twisted through the letters, but not obscuring them. Twisted loosely, not tight like rope. Can you bring it up and over the A? No, not that A. How about through the A and around the T? No, not that A. How about extending from the A to the T? No, not that A. Let’s move on the M’s…..”

What a gal!! A gal I highly recommend.

Haha! Your header looks great! Who doesn't want their own cartoon version of themselves? And your detailed instructions about the telephione cord paid off--it's very charming! =)

Love the new look!

I might need to hit April up for a button. I keep meaning to get back on my Mac with Photoshop, but the Oldest has discovered my copy of Illustrator - no joke.

He's actually pretty good.

Maybe I can hire him out?

Aha--is THIS how people prettify their blogs? I've wondered that.. I've begun to realize mine needs some serious nip/tuck itself.

I popped over from Suzi's blog..
