Yvonne from Cre8tive Girl has been designing my blog banners for quite some time; I did my own blog banners for years, but once I realized a year or so ago that spending 4,763 hours churning out a blog banner each month (graphic design is not exactly my specialty) might not be the best use of my time, there was no going back. Yvonne is so creative and always surprises me with new, fun ideas.
For this month’s banner, I emailed Yvonne a request that said something along the lines of “Color! Horses! Whee!”
A few days later, she sent the banner you see this month. But rather than use illustrations in the banner as she always does, she created–and then photographed–sweet little paper flowers. I thought it gave the banner such an unusual dimension and texture.
Yvonne sent me this tutorial for the flowers so you guys can make them yourself. I think they’re adorable.
(Yay, Yvonne–thank you!)
