Miss Indecisive

So I’ve been neglecting my blog now for a little over a week, oops.  Since my last post I’ve been trying to come up with a new design for my blog.  As a “learning” graphic designer, having a basic template just killed me on the inside.  So, I had been working on an awesome nautical design that had anchors and an awesome page title design for the blog called “Learning to Surf,” and when I was almost finished I decided I didn’t want to call my blog that anymore.  I decided it was too cheesy and was just not what I was all about.  Yes, I am learning new things and getting myself to have new and different experiences, but I also want to write about some of the old, down-home, Nebraska living that I experience every day.  Since the third time is the charm, I changed my blog name one more time (hopefully for the last time!)  I ended up deciding to just call it Brianna Paulette, that’s me!  I thought it was quite fitting.

Now that I had my blog name down, I wanted to come up with a design that was “me.”  That was a huge hurdle in itself; I am completely indecisive on everything I design for myself.  (It took me 8 different designs before I could finally settle on a business card design!! YIKES!)  So if you can imagine, designing my blog is a big deal to me because a lot more people can access a blog than my business card!  I decided to go with something clean, simple, and RED!  After all, I am a Nebraska Cornhusker!  GO BIG RED!  As you can see from my blog, this is what I came up with!  When I start learning more about this whole blog thing and HTML code, I’m sure it will change more!  I’m still freakishly frustrated with not being able to use the fonts that I want… nothing was working right :(.  I’m sure I will learn though…. Hopefully.

If you have any advice on blog design and font use I am completely open to comments!!
