Win a Completely New Look for your blog: Blogger blog design giveaway!

February 11, 2011 by Sandra 16 Comments


Blog GiveawayIt’s here.  The long awaited giveaway! I’ve been working on Blogger (Blogspot blogs) doing some design work for awhile now, and I’m feeling confident enough to offer a giveaway for a COMPLETE blog design!

The design will include:

:: 2 or 3 column layout

:: custom background

:: custom header

:: five custom sidebar titles

:: customized navigation bar

:: signature

:: three custom graphics to include in posts (For example, a graphic could be for a series that you are running on your blog or maybe you’d like a graphic for weekly store deals that you post…)

:: installation of design

But wait, what if you have a WordPress blog or you don’t need a completely new design?

Well, while I will be offering WordPress design in the future, I’m not ready to begin just yet because a WordPress design tends to be more involved than a Blogger design.  I STILL have something for you, though!  For those of you with a WordPress blog or a blog that doesn’t need a completely new design, you can still enter to with (3) custom graphics to enter into the posts of your blog. Again, maybe you’d like a custom graphic for a regular feature on your blog or something else.

How to enter:

You can get up to four total entries for a chance at winning a new Blogger blog design or (3) custom graphics.  Just leave a comment on this post each time you do one of the following:

1. Simply comment on this post letting me know that you’d like to be entered to win.

2. Subscribe to The Sensible Mom (just enter your email address in the subscription box in the right sidebar and press “subscribe”)

3. “Like” The Sensible Mom on Facebook

4. Blog about this giveaway on your blog

You can do any of the above to be entered to win between now and Thursday, February 17, 2011.  A winner will be chosen at random and announced on February 18, 2011.

I would say “good luck” but I don’t believe in luck so I’ll just say, “Blessings!”

Making dairy-free vegan chocolate chip cookies for Making dairy-free vegan chocolate chip cookies for my family today 😁 We started going to a new doctor and found out that my oldest son is actually allergic to dairy. I don't know why none of his other doctors ever thought to check for the most common types of allergies in him especially since he has struggled with eczema and that's a common symptom when you're allergic to dairy products. Anyway, I'm glad to know for sure now. #delicious #plantbased #vegan #dairyfree #eggfree #cookies #chocolatechip #chocolate #sweets #family #dessert #treat #delish #delicioso #mmm #yum #sweet #baking #allergies #momlife

We bought two sets of these $37 Knoxhult wall cabi We bought two sets of these $37 Knoxhult wall cabinets to use in our boys' bedroom and they're working out great. They're actually white with gray doors and while they didn't come with any hardware, we were able to add a couple of nice knobs we purchased from a hardware store. Now, the boys have extra space to store their stuff and they've been hanging in their rooms for months now so I thought I'd share in case it might help someone.👍 #home #organization #ikea #cabinets #boysroom #momlife #solutions #homedecor #homeinspo #homeinterior #room #ikeahome #family
