One More New Year's Background

Okay - last background for awhile. We're off to Southern California to ring in 2009! I hope everyone has a fantastic remainder of 2008 and a ROCKIN' New Year! :)

Loves to all!

Another New Year

I've been playing around with using photos for background "papers." Here's my first experiment. I'll keep trying to get it right, so keep checking back!

Vintage Black and White

I LOVED finding these fun papers from Summer over at Summertime Designs. The collection is called "Vintage Oreo" which fits them perfectly! I'm a huge fan of the cute neutral colors. I hope you enjoy them too! (It's a little gift for after the holidays.)

Love,
Cristi

Non-Christmas Themes

I've been meaning to post some "Non-Christmas" themed backgrounds for after the holidays. Today I'm finally getting around to it. Here are some of my "Cristi's Creations" themed background designs.

Will Not Delete!

FYI, I've had a few people ask, and the answer is no way Jose! :) If you follow the instructions on the sidebar, none of my blog backgrounds will delete any information or widgets from your blog. (Yay!) It was really important to me that I found a way to create backgrounds like this. I actually had found a site that I really liked once, but when I changed the bg, it deleted a lot of my sidebar widgets. So, rest assured, these ones won't do that!

Wow!

Thanks for all the support, you guys! I have great friends and family! You rock! :)

I know my little backgrounds are really dinky and small compared to some of them out there. But I'm still working on it. I'm trying to figure out how to make backgrounds that cover the whole page. So just bear with me. (Right now, though, we have the flu at our house, so I might not get around to making any more for a few days.)

I'll also make some more backgrounds that aren't just Christmasy - out of request. I can't believe I had a request for that! Wow! Thanks again!

Love to you all!

Cristi
