Designed by Lara - Web Design Blog

Well…first, I am sorry for being MIA for so long. I hurt my back and have been dealing with severe pain. I was forced to take some time off and then I was playing catch up! Blech! Anyway…I am finally back and working harder then ever to earn YOUR business and trust!

One of my most recent and fun projects was for Vicki at Paper Hugs and Die Cut Dreams…

Here is what the client had to say…

“Lara’s work is top notch! She is excellent to work with and gave me EXACTLY what I wanted!! I have gotten so many compliments since the blog was installed! I would work with her again if I ever decide my blog needs another makeover! Her prices are reasonable, she was quick and efficient! I absolutly ADORE my blog and it’s perfect for me! - VickilynM.

What the Client had to say:

“Lara designed the header for my blog Dish Gadget TV.  Knowing I was in a hurry to get the new header done; she did a rush job for me and the results were outstanding!  She paid attention to what I wanted and then she delivered and in record time!!  I wouldn’t hesitate to use her service again and I *highly* recommend her for anyone’s custom blog design needs.”  - Gary

More coming tomorrow…

I recently had the pleasure of working with Suzette, of TheSuzette.com. She won a $25 design credit and decided to use it towards a new Wordpress blog design. There were a lot of details and she was very particular on several things, but in the end we were both happy with the outcome of her adorable blog.

What the Client Had to Say;

“Ever since I checked out Lara’s site, I couldn’t stop my desire to engage her to give my blog a facelift. I really like all her designs, as they are carefully matched with the blog owners’ personality/ characteristics. I love the image that she found for me, which matches exactly to my blog! I also like her design being very neat and organized. I am actually not familiar with FTP and stuff, but I need not be worried at all - Lara helped to upload the theme and completed all the setup for me, within just a couple of hours or perhaps shorter! I am a perfectionist and have been very picky on very tiny little things. Lara is very patient with me, worked hard to ensure that I am happy. Thanks Lara! :)” ~ Suzette
