banner re-do

Have you seen the change up above? I decorated last night. As many of you know, polar bears are one of my favorite animals out there so I wanted to keep that theme but I still wanted to add a few things to reflect the blog such as running and cycling. I was lucky enough to find some free clipart at DailyClipArt.net.

The girl runner is my re-do, it was originally a boy so I cropped his head off (that sounds so bad) and I copied the head fo the girl cyclist and put it on top of the runner's body. It looks pretty good...don't you think?

The last decorating was the title, bigger typeset, brighter letters. Overall, I luuuuve it!

Here is a little button if you want to swipe it and put it on your blog.
