She's a fabulous food blogger who focuses on providing healthy recipes to her readers (as well as gorgeous food photography!). I had so much fun coming up with her new design & love how it turned out! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white;">For her header design, I played off the "skinny" idea by highlighting the "i" </span><span style="background-color: white;">in </span><span style="background-color: white;">Skinny, to add a very subtle graphical element to the logo-type (that to </span><span style="background-color: white;">some may read as a skinny little person!). I thought this was a fun way to add a </span><span style="background-color: white;">hidden second meaning to the logo-type.</span></span><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiINAxKL6QYcdtTt3NBUQczkA9HJjXmtjFydgo8YCTr2jM8m_nKMq45gZoRMatRuX9X5IftFcXhMBAsgVP3ob4NB1j66RsNXAV_fB2y-Rhu-hKL0-29o_eAEADDcq6bHqC3eeurUApn8Zs/s1600/Custom_Blog_Design_melissa_rose.jpg" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="590" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiINAxKL6QYcdtTt3NBUQczkA9HJjXmtjFydgo8YCTr2jM8m_nKMq45gZoRMatRuX9X5IftFcXhMBAsgVP3ob4NB1j66RsNXAV_fB2y-Rhu-hKL0-29o_eAEADDcq6bHqC3eeurUApn8Zs/s640/Custom_Blog_Design_melissa_rose.jpg" width="640" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">

I'm big into hand drawn illustrations and I love the opportunity to whip out my sketchpad when starting a design. I'm a big believer in sketching out designs in the beginning, in order to fully conceptualize what type of layout is appropriate for that individual blogger.<br />

I recently had the opportunity to work with Danielle over at <a href="http://www.framedfrosting.com/">Framed Frosting</a> on her blog design/rebrand, and today I'm going to give you a little sneak peek at how I created it from sketchpad to computer!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJrBXc7zDc7kEdle7Sc4_hyvpwf0w5JG7GrcWt_6jX5h53NpUTvBIahrw-1J_vJUYMm1n6iltJ2AXTm6nIwUXo35-F9Oo6c6kg34R-77qFoN_StKg4WR1SIqLIYwiAhFHVo9-MF2DgDSKt/s1600/Danielle-45.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="92" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJrBXc7zDc7kEdle7Sc4_hyvpwf0w5JG7GrcWt_6jX5h53NpUTvBIahrw-1J_vJUYMm1n6iltJ2AXTm6nIwUXo35-F9Oo6c6kg34R-77qFoN_StKg4WR1SIqLIYwiAhFHVo9-MF2DgDSKt/s640/Danielle-45.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When Danielle first came to me, she had a lot of ideas on what she wanted it to look like. <span style="text-align: center;">Whimsical, w</span><span style="text-align: center;">atercolor, p</span><span style="text-align: center;">olka dots, use of glittery gold, were a few things she had mentioned she liked. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So I set off to find a way to bring all these different elements together into one unified design. Like most of my designs, I began sketching on paper. With design so much geared toward computers these days, it's important for me to take a step back and conceptualize before jumping into a design. Sketching can not only lead to other great ideas, but it can also be the first step to creating organic & natural typography and graphics. Many sheets of paper later, I had a few "winning" sketches that I wanted to work with. I scanned them into the computer, where I vectorized them, and worked with them from there.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggTGwXg10lwTULWtuizbTOBTN-1_LlEiuctrqvDPUAFNJV_x1D8XCPi-rUTOIUTWb8eq9CDr5r70YyyqqpXZr9QJ0aRGBxhggNN6UaJ2By3lMFzpOgYdE3I-DGOtNRmUYo6Rpqp7SEqKgY/s1600/Danielle.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Hand drawn floral accents" border="0" height="349" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggTGwXg10lwTULWtuizbTOBTN-1_LlEiuctrqvDPUAFNJV_x1D8XCPi-rUTOIUTWb8eq9CDr5r70YyyqqpXZr9QJ0aRGBxhggNN6UaJ2By3lMFzpOgYdE3I-DGOtNRmUYo6Rpqp7SEqKgY/s640/Danielle.jpg" title="Hand drawn floral accents" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After laying down the "mood" of the design with the hand drawn elements, I then set off to incorporate watercolor into the design. I was unhappy with the watercolor images I was finding online, and knew that the only way to achieve the form, color, and quality I wanted was to produce it myself. So I whipped out my sophomore year watercolor set and began painting. I set off to achieve a shape that would fit well as a header and frame the top of the blog.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwkfWSB8Rt5iBfH0OIkao_YgMMaHtJ_eGmjQCtXShejUmVk8nhXGBbLzP7VYya8QOl9zZ3pujn2hCQhaCUFzRlwRQgUCwMBiEm55dluCcT1Zot4NfXle0TCVIm0KXJeCHhbQfdw0l6l0ky/s1600/watercolor.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="using a watercolor for a blog design" border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwkfWSB8Rt5iBfH0OIkao_YgMMaHtJ_eGmjQCtXShejUmVk8nhXGBbLzP7VYya8QOl9zZ3pujn2hCQhaCUFzRlwRQgUCwMBiEm55dluCcT1Zot4NfXle0TCVIm0KXJeCHhbQfdw0l6l0ky/s640/watercolor.jpg" title="using a watercolor for a blog design" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After producing the main graphic elements, the next step was to move to the computer. At this point, I sat down and figured out what types of fonts & colors would work well with the whimsical & organic feel I was trying to achieve. A mix of whimsical script & both clean cut serif and sans serif fonts turned out to be a great mix for a fun, young, and organic feel. Danielle had a certain color palette in mind, and after incorporating it throughout the design, everything came together! I loved working with Danielle to make her vision come to life and am so happy with how it turned out!</div>

Erin, over at <a href="http://www.cali-landchic.com/">Cali-Land Chic</a> purchased two of my shop's wall art prints & also had me create two custom ones for her! One of those prints was a custom print of her blog's new header logo (see below photo). I had so much fun creating these prints for her new (adooorrabllee!!) craft room. Be sure to check out <a href="http://www.cali-landchic.com/2013/01/craft-room.html">her post</a> with more photos of the prints in action!<br />

I LOVED working on this soft, hand drawn, and whimsical design. Whether it be the pin-it hover feature, the social media button incorporation, or the hand-painted watercolor accents (yes, I got out my actual paints out for this one!), this design has all the bells and whistles!<br />
<br />
Be sure to stop by again soon for a behind-the-scenes look at how this hand drawn design was created!<br />

Carrie, over at <a href="http://www.bakeaholicmama.com/">Bakeaholic Mama </a>to me wanting a new header that incorporated a stand mixer, a lot like the adorable earrings she just got!<br />
<br />
So I got out my sketch book, drew a replica of her earring, scanned it in, redrew the vector, and then incorporated it into her new header. It was such a fun project & as a baking-fanatic myself, I was excited to take it on!<br />

Kylie had a wonderful vision for her blog and I'm so excited to show you the finished product! This design was a little different style than the ones I had worked on in the past...but I absolutely LOVE it. It's simple, clean, and contemporary and makes her wonderful photography the center of attention.<br />
<br />
Her design features simple hovering social media buttons, as well as a social media post footer! Great for business blogs or bloggers looking to network!<br />

Super fun design alert. When Amy over at <a href="http://denimandplaid.blogspot.com/">The Farmer's Wife</a> came to me looking for a new design, right away, I had so many ideas running through my head from the beginning. It's not often I get to do "country-chic"in my designs, so it's safe to say that my country roots loved it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here's what Amy had to say about the vision for her new design:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>"My blog is about my daily life. I LOVE fashion, and
try to incorporate that in. I am
also a farmer’s wife, hence the name of the blog “The Farmer’s Wife.” … I <b>don’t</b> however want my blog to scream
“redneck in overalls” type of blog."</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm glad our visions were similiar, Amy! After taking into account the color palettes she gave me, and a little country-chic, here's the design I came up with!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Oh boy did I love working on this design for Kay over at <a href="http://www.lifeafterblog.com/">Life After</a>. (I know I say that a lot on here, but I truly love working on each and every one!) Kay is mom to a super adorable little boy, and her blog talks about just that!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br />She gave me some fun color palettes to work with, but for the most part let me have fun with it! I wanted her blog design to be light & fun, to reflect her bubbly personality (trust me...her blog is hilarious.)</div>

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;">My oh' my was this a fun & colorful design to work on. Katie over at <a href="http://www.misstweedle.com/">Miss Tweedle</a> had a clear vision on what she wanted her new design to be.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Her goal for her blog is for it to become the "it" blog for the new homemaker. With her talent for cooking, sewing, and more...I have no doubt her blog will spread like wild fire. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="color: #444444;">Here's part of the "vision" she gave to me to work with:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i style="color: #444444; font-family: inherit;">"Black bold capital font right across the middle of the header quite big saying "Miss Tweedle".

Okay, folks. Today's feature blog design was for the oh-so-hilarious Taylor over at The Daily Tay. (Not kidding. This girl is laugh-out-loud funny.)</div>
<br />
She came to me wanting a very simple, chic design for her daily lifestyle blog. She already knew she wanted a black, white, and yellow color scheme, so the next step was for me to come up with a way to incorporate these colors into her design.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
She also knew she wanted to somehow incorporate images into the header. Many times, my clients know exactly <i>what</i> they want, they just need someone else to make it come to life. So that's where I came in.<i> </i>I love being able to take a simple idea and transform it into a design they can be proud of!</div>
<br />

Low and behold, within just hours of installation I already had comments from readers describing my new layout with those exact words! Melissa magically captured the image I had in my head, and transformed it onto my new blog. Melissa was patient, kind and courteous every time she'd send me a new proof and I found a little detail or button I wanted her to implement. If my words aren't enough to convince you, I'll let the numbers speak for themselves- literally within the first twelve hours of having my new design live I jumped up about 20 followers. You're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but nobody ever said you can't judge a blog by its design. I would absolutely recommend Melissa to any blogger who is contemplating getting a new design. If you're like me, you're on your blog for numerous hours a day, why not make it looks its very best?"</i></span></div>

This custom blog design over at <a href="http://typeakitchen.com/">Type A Kitchen</a> was super fun to work on! Allison came to me wanting to incorporate a cutting board pattern into her design somewhere. I love when the opportunity comes to add photographic elements into designs, and I was excited to see what I could think up. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I wanted to keep the design very clean, in order to stick with that "Type A" theme. So the challenge was to find a balance between the wood pattern & clean-cut typography. After some thought, I decided to design the navigation bar & sidebar labels to look like the type was engraved into the wood. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Allison also loved the font "Just Another Hand," so we incorporated it along with the bold serif fonts for the header. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I have to say that is one of my favorite blog designs of all time! I think mainly because of the color palette these wonderful ladies gave me to work with. <a href="http://edit-kc.blogspot.com/">Edit</a> is made up of 2 sisters and their mom, who recently started a lifestyle blog based in Kansas City. They are planning to grow their blog into an actual boutique in KC, and needed a logo & blog design to brand themselves for this new venture.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So that's where I came in. They wanted their logo to be simple, yet fun. Something that had a tie to typewriters. I designed their logo to subtly resembler typewriter keys.

This latest design was such a fun one to work on! <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/pickledoodledesigns#">Pickle Doodle</a> designs is a fun stationery shop, and she wanted her new blog design to go well with that upbeat theme & the style of her products.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For the design, I decided to do a more un-conventional navigation bar in order to keep things light & fun. I also designed the sidebar headers to be of varying fonts, colors, and styles to give the blog some extra flare. </div>

I love how it turned out. Take a look at the finished product!</div>

Blogs are great ways to market your Etsy shop. They allow you to update your customers of recent products, as well as directing traffic to your shop! I also do <a href="http://melissarosedesign.com/brandingetsy-design">Etsy Branding</a> if you're looking to take your shop to the next level! I'd love to work with you to extend your brand!</div>
