I was beyond thrilled when Tara, from Scoutie Girl, agreed to work with me on my new blog design. I know that I tinkered with the old one but I was limited to my capabilities and so I decided to work with a professional. Tara was such a peach to work with. She was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and went far beyond my expectations. I would pimp her out in a heart beat! Together we came up with a design that suited my taste to a T: clean, simple, and uncluttered. I am so ecstatic with the new look! I hope you are too.
Because so many changes are happening, getting a new website and now a new blog I feel like I’m starting with a clean slate. And with that will come new posts and ideas. So I thought of offering a giveaway of $50 to anything currently available in my shop to celebrate. That’s right, anything! Just leave a comment and you’re automatically entered to win! Want another chance? Just copy and paste this tweet: I just entered in @perideaudesigns new blog giveaway for a $50 gift certificate! www.perideaudesigns.com/blog and come back and post the link in the comment field. Limit is 2 entries per person.
Deadline to enter is midnight (EDT) Thursday, March 25th. Then over the weekend my trusty assistant will help me choose the winner.
