Teeny Tiny Fashions - She was soooo great to work with and she makes the cutest kids clothing!  I can't take credit for the little kid illustration, she purchased it from iStock :)

Little Details Photography - Helen is in the UK, I really enjoyed working with her.  We did a logo design and a Flash Header, she even had me do some print materials.  She also is a very talented photographer :)

Fried Pink Tomato - Jaime is a Southern Girl and her blog is just so much fun!  I can't take credit for the cute illustration, a different designer did that for her.

Bringing Up The Bly's
Dapheny is a military mom with her husband and little girl. I had a lot of fun with her illustration, because she wanted it to be girly and still show a little of her military life. Check her out and drop her a comment! http://bringingupblys.blogspot.com/

This is what she said about her design: My husband always says it was an ego-booster marrying me because I insist on always having the best of everything! So naturally, I went to Carolynn for my blog makeover. Her custom blog headers are beautiful and she did an amazing job doing everything she could to capture the little details of my family! I was so impressed! We're a military family and I'm leaving soon for training, so I was ready to get my blog up and running, but didn't want to share it with too many people until it was organized, so I inquired about a rush order and I had it in a matter of days! I can't wait to come back to her for add on's and new custom headers as our family grows and changes! Thanks so much, Carolynn!

Most Recent Custom Blog Designs

I just wanted to share with everyone my most recent blog designs! I really had a lot of fun with these.

For "Sun Kissed Mama", we did a custom illustration header. Which if I do say so my self turned out awesome. I drew her up to reflect how she looks and surrounded her with the things she loves. We even added a Tattoo that she is getting! It was one of my favorite illustrations that I have done. So go check out her blog: http://sunkissedmama.blogspot.com/

This is what she said about her design: "Carolynn, I LOVE the new look of my blog...you rock!! I loved working with you! You are helpful, polite and promt. You totally got "me" and it reflects on my blog! It is clear, colorful, and very hip, just want I wanted! Thank you so much again!! ~Tab"


"The Red Barn" is just like it sounds a big beautiful Red Barn, so for her, we did a nice red wood for the background. I do a lot of illustrations, so this was fun to be able to get out of Adobe Illustrator and use Photoshop, to manipulate the color of the wood and to play with old paper and fruit. It was a good change from my norm, and I just love the way it turned out! Check out The Red Barn at: http://redbarnblog.blogspot.com/

This is what she said about her design: "Working with Carolynn has been great. While doing my custom blog design, she offered several suggestions and was easy to work with all along the way (even when I made her redesign, and go back to original designs!) Her prices are better than many other competitors, yet her work sticks out among them. I will come back to her with any of my future design needs. - Chelsea"


"Brands 4 Bargain" was another really fun illustration project. We did manikins, and I drew them to wear the type of clothing that she sells. We did something different for her homepage too, which I thought turned out really nice. Made her blog look more like a website by having different blogs for each page, and the homepage, I got rid of everything except links to really direct you right where you need to go. Then when you get into the other pages it looks more like traditional blogs. It was a fun experiment though, something that I hadn't tried before, but I think it turned out really nice.
