contemplating a new blog design and I need your opinion!

Hey Y’all!

I’m contemplating a new blog design! While I love the cheery yellow balanced with the neutral gray, I’m getting a bit tired of it. It’s time for a refresher.

Some color combinations that I’m looking at are turquoise and red:

spring green and white;

and turquoise and orange:

What do you think?

Disclosure: These are digital scrapbooking papers found on Etsy, and not necessary the designs that I will be using. I have not checked with the shop owners to determine if they allow for blog design. I am sharing these in this post so that you can see the colors that I’m leaning towards.

      Thanks, Gena! I love it too, but I’ve had it nearly two years. I’d like to change it up a bit. Maybe the same colors but a different design instead?

    I like the green. It’s easy on the eyes. Some site have color combinations that really hurt my eyes.

    Turquoise and orange! Orange is such a happy color and I love the way it pops with the turquoise. I’m in the midst of a redesign myself (again) and I’m using some orange, so I might be a little biased. :)

      I’m leaning toward the Turquoise & Orange combo, but wonder if I’ll tire of that quickly. It seems so trendy right now. What’s a gal to do?! Can’t wait to see your redesign, I’m sure it will be finished before I even start mine!

    I love the turquoise and orange too-it jumped out to me immediately as you so I thought it was so funny when I saw everyone did as well as you! :) I do like the spring green as well but with a color other than white.
