I thought this was a perfect freebie to for the Holidays and Wintertime.  The freebie pack has 4 Photoshop brushes.  I also have a Full Set that includes 18 Brushes, and the vector EPS of all the Snowflakes.  You can purchase the full set for $4.  The buy now button at the bottom allows you to download it instantly.  I hope you like it :)
"Snowflakes" by Design Forte are free for commercial and personal use.  Files are NOT to be sold as is.  They MAY be used to create items to be sold, but may NOT be sold by itself in it's original form.  I do very much appreciate a link back and/or credit, but it is not required.

If you are interested in posting my freebie, you may link back to my website, but you may NOT offer the direct download on your website.



Below is the Full Set that is available for Purchase:

This is Part 4 of a series of tutorials, if you need to start at the beginning, click here. 

In this part of the tutorial, we will make a simple header and I will show you how to install it properly.

I am making my header in Photoshop CS5.  If you don't have Photoshop, you can use Paint.net it is similar to Photoshop, and 100% FREE!

Step #1: Making the Header

The first thing that I am going to do is create a Photoshop document the same width that we did the 3 column Template (1000px), and the height can be whatever you want (I chose 400px).

Next, I just started to place the different items that I wanted to use in my header :)

Then I used my Free Transform tool to size, rotate my objects and photos.

So now I have made a little layout out of my photos and digital scrapbook kit.

Now I am going to add a little depth to the elements by adding drop shadows.  What you need to do is double click on the layer that you want to add a drop shadow to, and a window will pop up, and you need to check the box next to Drop Shadow.  There you can adjust and add your drop shadow.  (Make sure your "Preview" is checked, so that you can see the adjustments you are making, as you make them)

Now that I have added a little depth with my shadows, I am going to finish it of with Text!

Now we need to save it for web as a png (you can save it as a jpeg if you like, but when I use any text, my preference is a png...).  If you would like to see an explanation of why I save what as what, CLICK HERE to view a post on it.


Step #2: Installing your Header

First, you are going to add your header image as you normally would here:

 When you upload, make sure that you select Instead of title and description, and do NOT select Shrink to Fit.  Then Click Save.
Now your Header will look like this.

Obviously, the borders around it look terrible, and we need to get rid of those, and we need to center it properly.  So go to your Edit HTML page, and find your #header-wrapper, and change the border to 0px.  So your #header-wrapper should now look like this.


Now go down to your #header, and change the 5px to 0px.  Also change the 1px to 0px on your border.  So now it should look like this.

Now you're Done!

I am so excited to do this tutorial, it is something that I have thought about for a long time. I wanted to put together a completely custom blog design and show everyone that is ambitious enough how to do it themselves.

So there are TONS of ways to approach a custom blog design, so I just decided to pick one direction and go with it. I am going to take a digital scrapbooking kit and make a custom blog design from that.

Here is a quick list of places that I found to get free digital scrapbooking kits (NOTE: Make sure to check the owner's Terms of Use, many are NOT for Commercial Use, only Personal):



I chose to go with one of my favorite bloggers' kits, "The Fall Collection" at kevinandamanda.com! Check her out, because she has FREE fonts as well, and they are super cute!

So the first thing that we need to do to get started is to set up a photobucket account. Go to Photobucket.com and set up the FREE account. Once that is set up, you need to make sure to click on "(more options)" see below, and select "1 megabyte file size"

Back in blogger, the very FIRST thing you need to do is to back up your template, to do that, go to "Edit HTML" and click on "Download Full Template". Take that file and make sure you know where it is so that if you need to go back you can.

We need to change our template to Minima, it is an older template, so you will need to go to your "Edit HTML" page, and click on "Select Layout Template", then you will see it :) When you click on "Save Template", it may or may not ask you if you wish to keep your widgets, if it does, keep them, unless you want to loose everything on your sidebars.

I love handwriting fonts, so naturally, I would have another handwriting font site to share!  Ellie and Ivy are the 2 that are behind "Sugar Frog Font", so give them some comment love and for all their hard work and making these fonts available to use for free.  They do offer them free for Commercial use, as long as you give them credit, but just check out their Terms of Use on the top of their website, and have fun using these fonts in your Custom Blog Designs!
