New Sites Live!
A few new sites are now live. I have really enjoyed working on these sites with my wonderful customers! There are really some awesome people in the world and I'm glad that I have the opportunity to get to know them.
Growing Green Bums - Client, Marissa
Marissa and I have been working hard on this project and I think it really shows!! A custom site, matching blog, newsletter and more were put together for Marissa's green online biz. After several logo concepts that didn't quite fit, a good friend of Marissa's came up with the perfect look and everything just came together. Big thanks to Jessica James - You Rock!
All American Baby - Client, Julie
Another fun site to create, All American Baby, was quick and easy. Julie had a few ideas about what she wanted to see, but let me take the reins and fly with it. Inspiration stuck when I saw a blog that had this cloud shaped top to it, and using some custom patterns I decided to layer it a bit like scrapbooking ang really make the header one of a kind. Julie is pleased with the results and ready to sell!
Faith by Design - Client, Holly
This project took a little sweat and tears, but I'm happy to report we did it! It's done, live and ready to be used LOL Holly had built a site using GoDaddy hosting services. She sells Christian based clothing that is unique and inspiring. As many of my recent clients have done, she contacted me expressing her joy with the Vintage Couture premade available in my online shop. It has been a very popular layout indeed, and many have desired duplicates. I am unable to replicate it, however, I can certainly use the same shape. We did a little gradient at the top, a custom logo, unique colors and finally arrived at the perfect layout for Faith by Design.
There are SEVERAL custom projects in the works at this time. I will be adding a few more by Friday to my finished list. Please note that I have new openings for Custom Projects for November through the end of 2009. There are 3 Available. Interested Parties must CONTACT ME to discuss their project. I will be carefully selecting the projects I will work on from this point forward and they will be extremely limited.

First day of S N O W!
Alarm: 5:40 BEEP BEEP BEEP - snooze.... Brrrrrr, kinda cold in here... why are the dogs running around all crazy? why is the house so quiet. Feels a little like Christmas....
Pull on sweats. Look out window - O M G! S N O W!!!! Crap. Pull on Socks. Pull on Red Sweater to go into garage to let dogs out the backyard. Remember on way back in that I watered my flowers for way too long the other day and did not disconnect the cold.... check for sound of running water - Thank you Jesus I don't hear any.
Should I go out and disconnect it? how much colder will it get? Nah, no need. I'll just go back to bed. Crawl into bed - can't stop thinking about damn hose. Ugh.
Pull back covers, put Red Sweater back on, find shoes. Proceed through garage, slip on water on the floor from dogs. OUCH! head outback, disconnect hose. NOT frozen, yay! Unplug Bird Bath Fountain. Go back inside. Yell at CJ to get up.
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP - snooze.
Wine wine, scratch - Dogs want back in the house. Well, Remi wants back in. Kyia could care less.
that's how my morning proceeeded on the first day of snow. And by the way, I never did get back to bed, in case you were wondering.

Day Outside, Night Out
Yesterday was a chilly fall day in Cheyenne (already!!). Adam and I spent our time outdoors cutting tree branches, burning the dead twigs and limbs and cleaning up the backyard. We cleared the area for our new shed and worked on our plans. 10 x 14 ft shed!!! so excited! Once that's done, my garage will be pretty awesome and we'll be able to park both cars in there during the winter months.
After all our hard work we realy didn't want to cook, so we took the kids to Culver's and headed to the $1 theatre to watch Transformers 2. I heard some say that they didn't think it was as good as the first one. True, there was alot more fighting and battling going on, not as much of the talking, etc. BUT, if you like action movies and can stand to sit through a 2.5 hour movie, you'll like it. I thought the graphics were absolutely amazing.
Today I am working on some new premades, laundry and cleaning the house. have to work this afternoon though!

Thank you to all my wonderful customers for your prayers and well wishings for my family. My dad's surgery was successful, although not without complications. We pray that he continues to recover and can go home soon.
Thank you also for your orders, you have been keeping me busy and you have no idea how much I need that!!
I will be adding some new premades to my store this weekend, I've been receiving alot of requests for new designs and apologize for keeping you waiting!! Can you believe it's almost Halloween??? where does the time go?
I also need to redesign my blog and twitter pages over the weekend. K, back to work!!

Things are working again!
After a few weeks of problems with my site and with PayPal, business is getting back to normal! I caught up my custom orders this week, ready to go live over the weekend. Started working on a few new Premades that I'm pretty excited to share with you - please keep sending me your feedback on my designs - knowing what you like is a great way to ensure that I create designs that fit your needs.
In September you can look forward to a HOLIDAY option on your template! for a little extra, I can make a replica of your Spiffy Boutique Premade or custom and add some holiday flair to it to give your store that "Holiday Wishes fulfilled" feeling.
In other news, as some of you may know - my Grams passed away this past Saturday. She had been quite healthy and it happened rather quickly. She lived down in Arizona in a retirement community where she had many friends and was very loved. My parents live down there so she was never alone. Unfortunately, my dad is having a major surgery on Sept 2nd to remove a mass from his head, so my mom is very stressed right now.
I ask for your prayers for my family - for the strength to endure whatever God's will may be. Thank you

Warning Blocking SpiffyBoutiques.com
It came to my attention this past week that my site at SpiffyBoutiques.com is being blocked by Google. Unfortunately, my pages were somehow compromised and unwanted code was inserted into my pages. I have been working on fixing this issue and am waiting for Google to review my site and remove the block.
Hopefully this will be done soon. Love the internet!! Just LOVE it :)
