I was planning to do a total overhaul of my site and get fully organized during my winter recess, but my timetable had to be moved up when I updated my wordpress yesterday. In addition to a number of lovely changes to the dashboard, the new version changed the access on my server and I’m no longer able to create a redirect to the blog.
The result? Now when you go to www.jessamazing.com you see this instead of the blog:
What do you think? I love me some hearts and those three colors. And of course, the lovely fonts. Check out my font list:
“the online world of Jess Amazing” – Lavanderia
“Amazing” – Bebas Neue (seriously my favorite font in the world)
“by design” – AFL Font pespaye nonmetric BT Medium
blog/shop/gallery – A Little Pot

For the final day of Awesome Week, I scoured the web for something awesome to do with scrapbooking. Well, I think I might be incapable of doing a successful web search- I never know what to type and I never seem to get the results I was hoping for.
I did, however, find my new favorite Etsy shop: The Jelly Bean Joint - it’s definitely full of awesome goodness!
The owner is an artist after my own heart. I love her style, love her stuff- this is a shop in line with the style of drawings that I tend to do, but never bother to turn into anything, and the same whimsy awesomeness I like to use in my scrapping. I’m thinking that I might have to buy these journaling spots:
