And the Designer for The Ultimate Blog Party 2008 is…
Or should I say the designers…
Yes, ladies, this was a race to the end. These two designers were neck and neck the entire time, each at times pushing forward but never too far past the other.
And in the end, they were separated by only one vote! We had 469 votes in total. 99 for the runner up and 100 for the winner.
So WHO are these fabulous designers?!?
And WHAT are we going to do about the results that are almost too close to call?!?
Well - we are going to offer up BOTH designs for you to choose from to put on your sites.
Here at 5 Minutes for Mom, however, we will only put up the winner’s designs.
The runner up is…
Entry #2 — Karla from Fruition Designs
|
And the winner is…
|
We will have the final designs and code for you in the next couple days. (We will be getting the designers to do a few size adjustments, etc.)
So please check back in the next day or two to get the code to add the buttons to your sites.
A huge “Thank You” to each designer who submitted a design and to each of you for voting. You all made this contest a fantastic start to the big party!
