After 8 months of having the previous red hot header, I think it’s time for a new one. I start with a while / purple idea in mind but didn't know how I ended with a pink header instead. Once the header is up, it doesn't go with the burgundy layout anymore :( So no choice …. but after searching for hours for a decent template, I totally gave up. At last, I have to custom made my own layout from scratch (i.e. from a piece of blank sheet) using MS word, Power Point, Paint brush, Photoshop, etc :( :(
It takes few days and a lot of try and error to put them together and finally, my new blog look is up and running!! *Wipe sweat* I didn’t know how I manage to get them right at the end but I need to thank hubby for his 'help' too :) :) I think it certainly worth the effort + time spend and it’s really nice to see a brand new look in my blog too :) Although I am not that fancy about Pink (I'd like to have white ...) and although my first custom made theme is not perfectly done but I think I am contented with it for now :) After all, it’s my few days of sacrificing my beauty sleep :P

Kristie, I am lazy too but really gets tired of my old header already :) Thanks for the compliments dear :)
Coffeesncookies, hahahaha ….. now you know :)
Cynthia, thanks dear for your nice words :)
Mommy to Chumsy, thanks :)
Esmeralda, I am a night owl you see :) Do you think it’s a bit too bright and too pink??
Yugene, thanks …. Actually it’s kind of easy if you know the basic. I guess the first time will be a bit difficult la (for me).
Cath, oh …. I know pink is your colour :P Thanks for your nice compliments dear ;)
Joanne, u too prefer ink then red? I guess red is still my colour but I just can’t have red forever right? Still thinking to change it back to red though, hahahaha …..
Carolyn, thanks so much :)
BoeyJoey, :)
Contentedmom, thanks :) I am glad you like it ;)
PeiWun, thanks :)
Hweili, I am not creative too and that’s why only can make a 2D one lo, or else, I think I will go for a 3D header too :)
MummyGwen, hahahaha ….. that also consider hidden talent ah? No choice leh, you will know if you are like me, can’t find anything to go with THAT pink colour for my header. That pink is too ……. too bubble-gummy-pink I think, that’s why :)
Anggie, ya … you are right, so hard to get the right measurements too and worst is, the background is the same too. So I really don’t know how the background will look like when viewing from other computer monitor coz it fits into my laptop screen only I think :P But I love your header a lot :)
Doreen, oh …. You no need to, ask your hubby will do ;) ;)
If you ask me, I thought that the pink is sweet, just like Angel lar.. ;)
I love the new layout and header. So sweet and angelic.
Esmeralda, thanks :) Maybe next time I will ask what colour is Angel's favourite hor :P :P
Julie, thanks so much! My very first attempt :)
Envy with every blog that have very custom made header.. I dont know how to do it.. really sad.. :(
How can I do it anyway..give some idea and way out pls..
Sha, actually it’s more convenient to use Photoshop to design the header for your blog, do you know how to use photoshop? Then you also need to have a clear idea on what theme you want to design for your header and start from there. But the easier way is to search from the internet for those custom made header and you just used their template. The thing I don’t really like about custom made template is that sometimes I don’t get the format I wanted and I don’t know to change them too …. If you need any help you asked me again ya coz I am not sure which area you are not clear and if I were to explain it from the start, I think I need 1 day to do that face to face, hehehehe ….. try and see :)
