Blog / Business Help

Ok so my blog is really bothering me. 

I have a list of to-do's and I am calling upon my fabulous readers to help me!  I know some of you are so talented so I am hoping someone out there can do what I am looking for. 

My blog was set it up fairly quicky (but since then I have spent hours trying to personalize it) but have decided that what I want is an entirely new look. 

With all the graphic design and interior design classes I have taken, I technically have the abilty to do this. 

However, I lack the time or inspiration.

I am looking for a new blog look, something more customized, not a free template, and help to convert my current site to the new look.  New banner, buttons, background, layout etc.  And I want a look that can be carried over to my etsy shop and used for my business as well.  I would also like a business card designed too (I will be printing them myself though). 

And I would want all original images used in digital format (preferably a modifiable format like jpg or psd) so that if I need to ever make a new button I can easily do so.  (I have and am familiar with photoshop and illustrator). 

I would also want the "rights" to the images / graphics designed so that I have the ability/right to reproduce them on business cards or note cards etc. (I think that means that premade clip art can't be used unless we get approval but I could be wrong...anyway, I am looking for something custom!)

If you would like to or are able to help, please email me with specifics!  What can you do, a site I can look at (yours is fine) that you have custom designed, and your price.  I am also willing to provide advertising in exchange for part or all of your work if that interests you as well (it would be ideal for me!).  If you are interested in advertising in exchange, I would provide ad space for you as well as feature you in a blog post.  We can work out specifics but it is an idea.  Anyway, email me and let me know your thoughts:  [email protected]

I am also looking for a few items for use on the items I am / will be selling in my etsy shop. 

I am looking to possibly purchase fabric labels / tags to sew into fabric / sewn items.  (Can you tell I have great plans for my shop?!)

I am also looking for tiny metal tags to attach to jewlery with Simply Designing engraved on it. 

If you have the ability to do either of these, please email me with a quote: [email protected]

Or if you know someone who makes or can help with any of these things, please have them email me or give me their contact info! 

Thank you SO much in advance for all your help my fabulous blog friends!
