A Scrapbook of a Different Color

Well, I'm a sorry scrapper -- I did NOT make a scrapbook page for the Little Lady's trip to the Pumpkin Patch.

Wait! Before you stone me, ostracize me, or "un-follow" me let me explain.

I was busy.

"Oh, yeah? Well, everyone's busy! What makes your busyness so unique?" (I know that's what you're thinking!)

Here's why my level of busyness is special: I launched a business this week.

Ladies and Gentleman (men -- not sure if there's more than one guy that reads this blog), I present .. ... ... ......................................

Blog Candy Designs -- another blog design business!!!!

Anonymous, Fictional Reader: But, Rachel, why did you do this? What makes you think you're WORTHY of starting this endeavor?

Rachel: Ah, dear AFR, the answer is simple: I love playing around with blog layouts, but there's only so much I can do to my own without frustrating the people who stop by every day. I needed an outlet for my Blog Makeover Addiction (it's a serious addiction, second only to Caffeine Addiction).

Anonymous, Fictional Reader: But, Rachel, you're a Stay at Home Mommy! How do you have time for this?

Rachel: Hello? Ever heard of naptime and bedtime?

Anonymous, Fictional Reader: Are you going to be too expensive for me to hire? I mean, come on -- have you SEEN the yahoo headlines about the economy?

Rachel: Don't you worry about that, AFR. Currently, I have FANTASTIC "Grand-Opening" prices. You can get a custom look for as low as $20!!!

Anonymous, Fictional Reader: What about when your opening ceases to be "Grand" and you're just another designer amid the throng of designers? What about your prices then????

Rachel: Again, AFR, DON'T WORRY!! I promise that I will always have affordable options. I'm not greedy! (I don't think I am, anyway)

Anonymous Fictional Reader: Well, have you actually designed for any blogs other than your own?

Rachel: As a matter of fact, I HAVE! Aside from the blogs of my little sisters, I completed two blog "re-designs" this week. Lori and The Neurotic Mom both approached me about getting some Blog Candy for their blogs. If you'll look below, you'll see their new looks! (and, if you click on their respective images, you'll be taken to their sites for the complete experience).







So, dear Readers and Anonymous, Fictional Reader, please stop by Blog Candy Designs and let me know how I can add some eye candy (I mean, BLOG candy) to your blog!
