Free Blog Background - Teal & Chocolate Damask Grunge


I recently created this ornate damask pattern from a piece of antique fabric. I've been having so much fun playing around with it, and today I came up with this teal / aqua and chocolate combo, that I grunged up a bit! I hope you like it.

This free background was made to be used on a Blogger blog using the Minima template for the standard number of columns.

Follow these instructions to easily add this background to your blog:

1)Make sure you are logged in and then click "Customize" at the top of your blog.
2)Click on "Add A Gadget"
3)Scroll down the box and click on "Html/Javascript"
4)In the "Content Box" cut and paste the Html code posted below.
5)Click "Save" and you are done!


<style type="text/css">body {background-image: url("http://i446.photobucket.com/albums/qq185/thebackgroundfairy/1abackdamaskgrungeaqua1.jpg"); background-position: center; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-attachment: fixed; }</style><div id="tag" style="position:absolute; left:10px; top:30px; z-index:50;width:172px; height:51px;"><a href="http://www.backgroundfairy.com" target="_blank"><img

Ooh another lovely one Karen...which I've just used on my blog. As I'm someone who likes changing things often (I keep moving the furniture around too!) your backgrounds give me great pleasure. xxx

hello!
I love this frame!!!
I try to put it on my blog but i'm on canalblog and i get some troubles... :)

Karen- The Graphics Fairy said...

Hi Milouson,
All of my blog backgrounds are sized for Blogger blogs. I'm guessing Canalblog uses different size specifications then Blogger, which is why it doesn't work correctly. I'm afraid I don't know a thing about Canalblog so, I can't really advise you at all.
So sorry!
Karen
