Blog Design for Magnolia Cottage

I have been busy designing blogs lately.  Patti contacted me after seeing Kitty's Blog design I created.
If you visit Kitty, she now has a .dot com blog address.
Patti wanted a cottage look, soft and romantic.
After several attempts, we arrived at something perfect for Patti...Very relaxing and pretty.
She knew she wanted pink, green and silver.


Be sure to visit Patti's blog and say hello.  She always welcomes  fellow bloggers. One of Patti's followers, Jonni from Jasper's Cottage is also looking for a new design.  It's on the back burner for awhile, but in time, she will have a new look.

I have also been busy designing a new blog for myself to showcase some of the blog designs I have done.
Come over and see what I am working on. My Fairy Blog Mother.
The names comes from fellow bloggers, whom I have done designs for or helped with tweaking their blogs. They call me the Fairy Blog Mother.  Unfortunately that name wasn't available, hence A Blog Fairy.
I still have some tweaking to do.

An easy summer dessert, especially with a Patriotic theme is Summer Velvet Parfaits.


Just take a basic white cake mix and divide the batter in two after mixing.  Add blue food coloring to one half of the batter and then add red to the other remaining batter.  Bake them in a 8 inch cake pan for about 25-30 minutes @ 350..  Let cool and then cut the cakes into cubes.  Use a parfait glass, wide rim wine glass and layer the cakes with whipped cream, blueberries and raspberries.  Pretty easy to do....Enjoy~

    You are extremely talented at many things but they all benefit from your attention to getting the smallest detail right.
    Your deseert looks so good but in a way it would be a shame to demolish it and eat it . . . lol

  12. You do excellent work! One of these days when I get rich, I'll have to have you create a new design for me. I like my current design, but I've had it for a long time now.
