I'm a homeschooling mama & novice digital scrapbooker. I created this test blog to have a place where I can try out my HTML and blog modifications before using them on my regular blog (and potentially mucking it up beyond all recognition!).
After letting this blog rest a while, I made some changes to my regular blog using my new-found template-altering knowledge. I'm not done there yet, but I decided to play around here again for a while.
I found a video tutorial for creating a digital scrapbook layout in Photoshop Elements and now have a few more tools under my belt. I am a visual learner, so hearing the tutorial as I watched her make her changes and then pausing it to flip back to my PSE and work on my parallel project was great. Using the techniques I learned from that tutorial, I decided to create a new header for this blog, and to use a completely different color scheme. It's perhaps a triffle busy, but I was playing with my newly-learned techniques. I may create a simpler one later.
So, I will be gradually making alterations to this blog in the next few days to get it to match my new colors. The finished (well, finished until I decide I want to tweak it again!) look should be very fresh and pretty. I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out!
