Im Co-Hosting!!! Friend Connect Blog Hop!!

I am so thrilled this week to be co-hosting the Friend Connect Blog Hop!  This is my first time co-hosting anything and cant wait to see how many of you join us this week!  Special thanks to The Life of a Not So Ordinary Wife for letting me join in on the fun!

 





It's Tuesday again which means it's time for the Friend Connect Blog Hop!

It's the time to meet new friends and find new blogs. You can choose to follow the cohosts in whatever way is best for YOU! Here are some of my favorite ways: GFC, BlogLovin', HelloCotton, RSS, Twitter, Facebook.

Ok, so let's get to the party, shall we?

RULES are simple:

1. Follow your host

Creating Buttons

I did it!!!

 

I finally made my own buttons for the blog!  Ah...see you notice that new button tab up there....yep....that is where they are at.  Just click on the tab and you will find two buttons that are ready to be snagged up and shared!

 

I designed these myself using Photoshop CS5.  I used Image Shack to get my codes.  I also found this great tutorial over at Blogging with Amy that helped me put it all together and get them loaded up for everyone to use!  Her tut made it super easy!

Check them out!  This was my first attempt at designing my own buttons, they are not perfect, but I think I did a pretty good job.  Now time to get started customizing the rest!
