TA~DA!!! A NEW LOOK & GIVEAWAYS

Stop!  Wait!  Don’t Leave!  Yes! You’re in the right place! The cute little froggies have hopped away and my little blog spot has been glammed up!  Isn’t she pretty?  Thanks for being patient, as she underwent her makeover!  From what I was told…things were looking a little crazy for awhile there.  (I couldn’t look!) I had a few friends call me to find out what in the world was going on, lol!  And I guess me hinting around to exciting news didn’t help! Do you think they know how much I obsess over my little blog?

It’s still being tweaked a tiny bit, but I *LOVE* the design!  My previous template was all the way cute, BUT it was also a premade template that was resold a few times.  At first, I thought that wouldn’t bug me…..BUT IT DID! IT REALLY DID! I thought the blogosphere was big enough for all 3 of us to have the same design and never even see each other.  I was wrong! And every time I ran across one of the other exact same designs, I cringed just a little bit, lol! It was cute, but it was not unique….(sad face).

There are so many talented teachers, designers, and teacher designers out there! As I searched for a new look, I kept coming across other custom designs that caught my eye and they were all done by the same designer, so I scrolled down to see who it was and there was the name of the genius mind reader that put all this fabulosity together…..Miss Jenna Snowden!

She did an amazing job of putting exactly what I wanted without me knowing exactly what I wanted! And her work is super affordable! You should definitely stop by and pay her a visit!

Now, that’s not the only exciting thing happening!  It’s giveaway time!

Do you love giveaways as much as I do?  Who doesn’t, right?  Well, there are 3 in the works that I think you should definitely consider entering!

The first one is being hosted by Michelle Oakes at Fabulous in First Grade.  Her Giveaway is sponsored by Creative Teaching Press!  Stop by to see the awesome prize you may able to win for your classroom!

The other is being hosted by Mrs. Dani Patterson at Patterson’s Porch.  She’s a fab new blogger {and one of my coworkers}. She’s thrilled about having reached 50 followers! Yay! Don’t you just love it when that little number flips over another 0?  If you love Target and Teacher’s Pay Teachers, stop by and check it out!

Thanks for stopping by and don’t forget to enter those giveaways! 

Oh, wait! Did I say there were 3? Sure did…stop by tomorrow and I’ll tell you about the 3rd one! Before you go, let me know what you think of my new pink & green, swirly, girly blog design!  Thanks again, Jena!

  14. GIRL YOUR BLOG LOOKS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!! I literally did a double take when I clicked on it today. The colors look great, I love your header and all of the buttons are adorable. I am a little bit biased because Jena did my redesign too. Enjoy!!!
