Welcome
to my blog!!
I
am pretty excited to start this new adventure with my blog – a space I have
dreamt of for a long time :).
Few
weeks ago, I decided I had enough of my boring lounge and wanted to add
something colorful that included one of my favorite statement of the
moment: “You are not the mistake you have made”… (Stop and think about it: it's a nice statement, isn't it?)
And.. What's better than the trendy “Chevron” pattern to start with?
Googling
around few blogs and websites I found the following one, and I immediately fell
in love with it:
If
you like Chevron patterns, I highly recommend you to check the other versions at Doodlecraft :) They’re free and a-m-a-z-i-n-g!!!!
Since I’m no professional
designer nor a photoshop amateur, I tried to work with the tools I
had... cough cough...meaning Microsoft Office [I know, I
should be ashamed of myself but wait to see the result!!].
I have copied the pattern on a Word file and created a text box. That was easy peasy, but then I started to check fonts.. and there I spent almost 2 hours because I couldn't take a decision!
Finally, the font I used is "Brush
Script MT" and I still like it a lot.
I am pretty proud of the
outcome:
When
I feel down I look at the picture and I feel much better and in peace. We do
make mistakes, we can’t change this, but we learn from them and we can become
better people day by day – mistakes do not determine our personality.
What about you? Are you passionate about chevron patterns? Do you have a favourite
statement that helps you relax and find peace?
Until next time,
Daniela
