I was so excited when Ms. Sharla emailed me to help her with her new blog designs. She did a wonderful job designing the headers for both of her blogs and asked if I could do the template designs. I am so excited that I could help!
My family and her family met while adopting my baby brother and her daughter in China. Since then, our families have had so much fun getting to know each other.

She wanted me to design a template for both her family blog and photo blog. I was so excited! Her favorite colors are brown and aqua blue, and she loves butterflies. We both liked the idea of making the blogs coordinate.
For her family blog, she wanted to be able to post larger pictures, but she wanted to keep her sidebar. So, I came up with a way to have both. I gave her a wide place to post with a skinny sidebar.
Her photography blog was the first photoblog that I've designed! Since it is a photoblog, there is no sidebar leaving room for large photos. Instead, all the sidebar items are placed at the bottom of the blog in a three column footer. I love the ending result! Ms. Sharla is an amazing photographer and I can't wait to see all her photographs displayed on her new photoblog.

One of the things on her blog that I'm most excited about is the drop down navigation bar. That's right! I said, "drop down navigation bar." So cool!
The navigation bar keeps all of Ms. Sharla's great photos and journaling organized through different categories. I'm looking forward to following her family's life through her lens and through her amazing gift of writing.
I really enjoyed working with you, Ms. Sharla! I know you will bless others through your blogs.
