Only this time all I really did was change the colours. I wanted something a little cleaner and less cluttered so I plunged right in with puglypixel's latest offering. I love Katrina's tutorials so when she revamped Lemon Meringue I fell totally in love and instantly downloaded. Of course, I then just as instantly started playing with the coding!
I've picked myself a colour scheme (notice my text buttons and social media icons match it? Yes, I'm very proud) and nabbed myself some other goodies while I was at it. I recommend looking at digital scrapbooking media when searching for inspiration or useable backgrounds, graphics and pretty things to make photographs look amazing. I got mine from Pixel Scrapper, a fabulous mine of resources, all of which are free, with most available for commercial use without requiring attributions. But if you download a lot please do make the effort to donate, at $1 (66p!) it's hardly going to break the bank!
I've still got some tweaking to do, mostly with the photos in each post as the new layout displays them a little differently but this is basically it now (well, until next time!). I'll be making use of the reply button on my comments that now works (stupid reason not to comment back before right?). I'm hoping to introduce a little more colour through my posts but we'll see how that goes as it'll take more time to edit these things in. Baby steps. Perhaps first I should try to post regularly ....
Thanks for stopping by,

Nice work, I am really glad to be 1 of several visitants on this awful site : D
J'adore the new look c'est tres chic! (watched Amilie last night and seem to have woken up in a faux French mood, though its much more Delboy than Tatu) I loved the one before too, but I love the simplicity of this one, I also your new intro (hello) is just fabulous! x
LOVE it!
I really like it. I have been thinking of doing a cleaner look for my own blog but I'm just not computer minded and find it really hard!
Hahaha, merci beaucoup! I do love that film! I liked the one before but it was getting a bit much, everything at the moment, in life and in blog, needs to just be simpler ;)
Fanks missus!
I'm going to take that as a compliment. Thanks! :)
Thank you. It's much easier with a pre-made template and I'm always happy to help with html/css queries - just drop me a line through my contact page if you ever get stuck :)
Ooooo.Love it! So clean, I can understand the need to de-clutter from time to time. and I love tweaking my blog too. Almost as much fun as sewing...;-)
Isn't it though, I think I'm addicted!
I like the fresh new look. I am keen to fiddle about with my own layout soon. I am in adsmiration of your html skills. xx
Thanks :) And if you ever get stuck I'm always happy to help! It's a lot easier to take a pre-made template from somewhere and fiddle than it is to write one from scratch! xx
I love the color choices! So pretty and warm. I think a lot of us must be going through spring cleaning or something! =D It's looking great Tors!

Thanks chickadee, it's funny how many blogs I've seen that have revamped recently, we've all got the spring cleaning bug!
