So pretty!
ReplyDeleteHi Kathleen,
ReplyDeleteYour header looks beautiful!! I'm so glad you found a background here to go with it.
Thanks for your comment,
Karen
Hi there! Thank you so much for this!!! I love it!
ReplyDeleteCan I ask for a favoure? Or...its just an idea for you headers. Could you do a header with achors and/or some other "seastuff"? It could look good. White and blue could be the colours, because it's the typical sailor-colours. You know what I mean? :) You dont have to, but it could be nice. Remember: just an idea! :)
ReplyDeleteAnni, someone who loves yor headers! Very good work!
P.S. sorry for my english!
i LOVE this color blue! Thank you so much for sharing!! :)

ReplyDeleteI'll be swappin back n forth between this one and the thee other blue and tan one you have. LOVE EM!
THANKS SO MUCH; YOU'LL NEVER KNOW HOW I APPRECIATE THEM!

Hi Karen, is there any way that you could create another version of this lovely background (my favourite, although they're all really good) to include a plain white centre panel - along the lines of the 'Snowflake' background?

ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU SO VERY MUCH this was the easiest and most beautiful addition to my blog. I have been admiring all the other beautiful blogs for awhile thinking how I would love to have mine done, but I was so scared I would lose everything trying to do it myself.

You have such beautiful backgrounds that I want to use them even if they don't fit my header and blog...:)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for all these possibilities to try out.
I have a question. If you could have a look and tell me if there's some way to bring the photo to the center? Is is possible?

Hi Cygnus,
ReplyDeleteIf you can resize your header and make it a little bit smaller, it should pop right into place.

ReplyDeleteThis has allowed me to jump on the "Pretty Page" bandwagon. Thank You so much !!!!
ReplyDeleteI love this background -- so much so that I'd like to use it as the background on my wedding invitations. Even though the background is free, I wanted to double check with you regarding using it on my invitations. Will you give me permission to print this on wedding invitations? I'm happy to cite you as the designer.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
