  6. Cute!! So many possibilities for colour combos--you could celebrate your national holiday with patriotic colours, or your favourite sports team's victory... Ooh or do it with black and metallics for New Years. Great idea :)

  9. Hi, I think your website might be having browser compatibility
    issues. When I look at your blog in Ie, it looks fine but when opening
    in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!
    Other then that, amazing blog!
