You have been missing me, haven't you? Well have no fear, my fabulous self is back in designing work yet again! Today I'm going to
brag talk about a sort of beautiful new theme I've just finished working on, and I'm proud to say it looks sort of sexy even to me :D
The Seraphine Muse Blog - Kasonndra Leigh
For any of y'all who don't know, this is the blog of my friend and author
Kasonndra Leigh. Check out the sexiness of her new theme :
I had a blast making this theme because it gave me the chance to have more Photoshop fun for the header, as you can see it's a bit different from the ones I've done so far. It's more similar in style to the one I did for The Katalina Room Wordpress theme a while back, only a bit more fantasy then that. I loved putting this together, really.
The theme includes the custom made header, background and sidebar headers, a post signature AND about the author box, social media buttons, a blog button with grab code, custom fonts and the overall sexiness of the color scheme. It's one of my more lush, richer themes, more glitzy then others, more feminine somehow. Loved making this one, totally did!
K and I were totally on the same page from the beginning regarding the look, style and feel of the theme, her vision for her blog and my vision for it came together beautifully. The smaller details of the theme took a bit more time then it usually takes me because K is such a busy wonder woman, being a mom and working on her writing all at the same time, plus getting little pestering emails from me in the middle of the night (I think? Time zones are awful things!), but hey, in the end we pulled it off and I'm very excited to say she loves her new theme. That's what makes me truly happy when working with someone, the fact that in the end they say those two magic words:
"Love it!"
That's what I truly love the most about this whole thing. Of course it can't always be such an awesome collab, but I find it often times is, because my clients often end up becoming my friends and they refer their friends to me, and like-minded people tend to stick together, you know? So I end up making new friends with each new job, and I am loving that a lot :D
Anyways, now I'm working on some more sticker galore for my lucky charm subscribed client
Ali, lol, she's the absolute queen of stickers I tell you! I love her to bits, she even admitted I've made a sticker addict out of her, haha. She's totally heart!
And starting Monday, I'm working on a new theme, one of a style I sort of didn't do yet and I literally can't wait to sink my teeth in it xDD You know many theme designers tend to work out a "signature look" that they can give you, a specific visual style that, for the knowing eye, is easily recognizable? Well I aim to be the kind of theme designer who can pull decent jobs for all kinds of styles more then specialize in a particular one, on all sorts of color schemes and looks.
I'm very happy I have managed so far to do a few different styles of themes, as you all know from my book blog probably, I'm a huge fan of diversity. So thanks guys for giving me the chance to work on so many different looks, I love every moment of it!
Oh, and, I'll be making an announcement in a couple hours, so stay tuned for that :D
On to the next, then!
xD
