This time I decided to let a professional handle the design. And I am so glad that I did! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I researched many blog designer's... looked over their web-sites, perused portfolios and read testimonials. After much investigation, I chose Julie at <a href="http://www.bloggerboutique.com/">BLOGGER BOUTIQUE</a> to give StoneGable a facelift. What a great fit!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Let me show you around the<span style="color: #9fc5e8; font-size: large;"> new</span> StoneGable...</div><div style="text-align: center;"></div><a name="more"></a>  The header above is a montage of my original work with a "pastel filter" applied. The center square hold an image of our home's stone gable that inspired it's name and the name of my blog.<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"> The sprawling "StoneGable" across the header is a new font! We tried a few fonts but this was Julie's original choice... she knew best!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"> My new tag line "inspiring creative living" reflects the purpose of my blog.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">And my new logo ~ SIGH~ a lovely monogrammed seal, floats in the left corner of the header. It appears on any comments I leave, is my favicon, and the logo is echoed in the laurel wreaths in post titles.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5CpWAIKpAmgO0bcQ6eozAs1Gdu-7wu6P3oBDsQVwc6BzO-ocyMze4g_nSA2FJxq23MCsUgTHwGPumD6uZljBI45UKGKOStn-XeuhDIF7LuKV4wiAi8WRTx9npPelRz1qhn0H1rG-vSLE/s1600/button-grab.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5CpWAIKpAmgO0bcQ6eozAs1Gdu-7wu6P3oBDsQVwc6BzO-ocyMze4g_nSA2FJxq23MCsUgTHwGPumD6uZljBI45UKGKOStn-XeuhDIF7LuKV4wiAi8WRTx9npPelRz1qhn0H1rG-vSLE/s1600/button-grab.png" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Choosing a header was a very big decision. Thank goodness, Julie was a great listener! She translated my desires into beautiful elements and graphics. She also was very diplomatic, steering me away from making any poor decisions. Working closely together, Julie gave me a blog design that embodies all that StoneGable is.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I love the new blog colors. They were intentionally chosen too... soft buttery yellow (my favorite color)  and a pale steely blue to work with the colors in the gable. Julie used these colors in designing the body of my blog, giving it an updated appearance!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Other great elements added to StoneGable:</div><div style="text-align: center;">new layout</div><div style="text-align: center;">new background</div><div style="text-align: center;">new signature and comment bar</div><div style="text-align: center;">new post dividers</div><div style="text-align: center;">new sidebar titles</div><div style="text-align: center;">new blog button</div><div style="text-align: center;">new navigation menu</div><div style="text-align: center;">cute social networking buttons<br /><br />I am especially enjoying the "pages" at the bottom of my header... Home, Recipes, Tablescapes, Weekly Menu, Tutorial Tips And Tidbits,  Home And Garden and On The Menu Monday.  Please click on these tabs to see my favorite posts.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">A great big THANK YOU to Julie at<span style="font-size: large;"> <a href="http://www.bloggerboutique.com/services/">BLOGGER BOUTIQUE</a></span>  for all of your hard work, your listening ear, your determination to bring to life my vision for StoneGable and for your professional advice at all times!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I highly recommend Julie.

It was my fondest desire for all who come to visit to find a place of beauty and inspiration!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">I NEED A LITTLE FAVOR</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;">I need a little help!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Because I stopped blogging and most of us thought that I would not be blogging again, I see that StoneGable is not on many of the blogrolls it used to be on.
