My blog was designed by the unbelievably talented and creative Judi at Doodlebug Designs. Judi was unbelievably awesome to work with – she put up with all of my anal-retentive nit-pickiness and did a WONDERFUL job of incorporating everything that I wanted in my blog design. She completely installed it and had it up and running without me having to lift a single html-ing finger.
Since my original installation, she has designed B-Sides for me and my Dose of Humor buttons, all with the same level of excellence and ease to work with.
And guess what?? To help me celebrate my 1st Annual Giveaway Jubilee, Judi is actually giving away a completely FREE CUSTOM BLOG DESIGN!!!

My favorite is the Journey of Faith and Grace. And, I am a follower.
Ooh, Ooh, pick me, pick me. LOL I love her designs. My favorite is: “The Scoop Chick Style”. There were several others, but I’ll keep it to just one.
BTW, I wasn’t getting on you at all about not liking sewing. I was just explaining the tiny level of sewing I actually like. That’s it! Have a blessed day, Rachel.
Hello Again,
I just started to follow Judy’s blog. Thanks for the jubilee.
I like the “At the Well” one, but they are all cute!
I am following Judy’s blog.
I love the Gus’ Gang design. It is fun, easy on the eyes, and oh so cute!
I like the Sunflowers and Chocolate design….VERY CUTE!
I like the one with black swirly thingys…and I’m going to go follow her now!

I like “Weighing in on Life” I’ve just started a new blog – http://www.more4momsbuck.com.
It’s in need of an overhaul.
Thanks for the great giveaway and good luck to everyone.
I like my life as annie the best!
I like the view from here and the the Journey of Faith and Grace. I don’t have a blog but I have been thinking of about starting one…maybe if I win this it will spur me on to actually write it. Actually the big thing holding me back is I can’t think of a name for one.
The sunflowers and chocolate design for me.I am a subscriber.
linmoe@sympatico.ca
I like the book review one (I would love to have one of these myself!)
Picking a fave is not an easy thing to do! I really like the ‘Mom of Four’ one– the header and the tri-column design is my style. I am also a follower of Judi’s blog, as well!
the one with the blue and burgandy check and the hearts around the blog header called My ??? Pillow… not sure of the middle word, is my favorite. I am a simple girl and prefer classic country type styles.
Thanks for the opportunity to win a blog makeover.

I am a follower of Judi’s Blog… I love her stuff. If I don’t win one of these makeovers some day soon I will have to save up and buy one. Though I think my blog design is ok for now.
Debbie
Oh I so want this. I’ve been attempting to get a blog up and running for two months now. I have spent countless hours looking at templates. I finally had one I liked and the very next day went onto someone else’s blog only to see it was the same template I had just chosen. I want something unique and different and not a template that everyone and their brother has access to.
I like “Letters from Home”.
Thanks for the great, great contest and I really hope you pick me:)
