Your header is very attrative and I especially like it because it's so different from what I normally see, such as the use of purple instead of red and green.
Very creative. We like it!

You've created a unique and beautiful header, Sandra and thank you for sharing how you did it.
Sandra, a better use of time than those who rushed about AND thanks for sharing HOW you created the header. Purple is also my favorite color too.
Hi Sandra, I really, really love it! first, I love the color and the layout! And the ball ornaments look so shiny and real. But I especially love the G-clef and the music bars.
You are so creative. This is unusual and wonderful!
It is fun to hear about the tools you use in your creative posts. Good job!

It is good that you can have hours of fun creating such great pictures on the computer. Well done tech head.
Good job. You came up with a winning recipe. I tried to do a new header and background Saturday but didn't get very far with it.
How inventive you are. Beatrice Boyd sent me and I can see why.
You found all sorts of sources and brought them all together to make a brilliant header. And it's purple, my favorite.
