Heart on sleeve moment

Well, the title suggests that this post will make a change, but I'm a 'heart on my sleeve' type of gal and I'm too old to change now.  
I had this idea to freshen theWOYWW logo in preparation for the new year, because it's a ridiculous acronym and deserves a spring clean, and because it looks as though it's going to make a third anniversary for goodness sake.  Honestly, you'd think none of us had anything else to do! 

So when you need a nice design and you don't have a single atom of clue about such things, to whom do you turn? Yep, I commissioned a design studio!  I know, how self important is that!  And the Design Studio took the brief and frankly ran away with it and gave me choices and asked me questions that I didn't understand.  So I made up the answers, and now have three styles to choose from.  Of course, it happens that my sissy Stephanie is a partner over at the Design Studio, but y'all knew that from previous bragging posts.  




Steph has posted these on her blog too....wanna visit her and tell her which you prefer?  I have already chosen, and will not be influenced.  Well I might.  But likely not.   
See you tomorrow for WOYWW, old style or new!  The badge might change but believe me...oh lord, nothing else does!

They are great and I think if pushed to choose I'd say the middle one, although the first one is a close runner!

I go for number two definitely, if you want a button that will leap from a page and as most colours are on it it would fit in with most blog decors - also love number one too but not sure it will stand out. I reckon know which one Brenda of Buttlersabroad will like - she will go for number 3 as she uses those colours really often! Shaz in oz.x

Helen said...

Gorgeous, all of them and I have visited your very talented sister to cast my vote. I love the middle one best, I think the WOYWW stands out best on this one... can't wait to see what will be the outcome.

Craftychris said...

ooh its a close run thing! No 1 is paisley which I love, but No. 2 really pops! decisions decisions - will pop over to your sister's place to vote but whatever you choose will be fab xx

JoZart Designs said...

I really love the one with the most impact... the middle one. Great colour and style, well done Sis!. I've cast my vote and can't wait to see the result and your choice!

They are all great , the middle one packs the most punch!!!hugs trace x

Morti said...

Knowing what you've said about your colour prefs, I would say you've gone for either number two or three.

But hey, WOYWW has definitely taken on a life of it's own (look at the numbers last week!!!!! :-O )and there's no way it'll die now. Unless you stop completely. And then one of us would probably pick up the torch and carry it for ye... see ya tomoz!

Lavinia said...

I like them all too! However I think the 1st one appeals to me more. Its been ages since i joined in on WOYWW, will try get my act together for tomorrow! Hope you well!

I REALLY like the pink one!
xx

Anouk said...

love number one :) just sayin :)

KatzElbows said...

I love WOYWW: whenever I think it or type it I think WOW!!! Always makes me smile and feel good.

The Crafty Elf said...

Julia...they are all great! If you were leaving it up to me (which you aren't) I would pick #3. If you go by the old....I think #2 is the choice. If you go by the colours of your blog which obviously you love, #1 would be it. Can't wait to see!

Di said...

Middle one for me chick - off to vote on your sis's blog now! But, in truth, so long as WOYWW, continues the logo could be a pair of old knickers fluttering from a flagpole - I'd still be joining in :)) Di xx

Helen T said...

All 3 look good, but I think that the Middle one is my favorite.

Elizabeth said...

Hi Julia, I think the only thing that would kill WOYWW is the gremlin that is preventing folks from commenting over the last week, otherwise like the old trooper it is, it will go on forever :) Unlike most of the others, #2 is not for me ... it does strange things to my eyesight ... and if I had any say at all, and I know I don't, I'd opt for #3 - love the colours. Elizabeth x

Angie said...

I like the old best...sorry ...yep I'm a stick in the mud who hates change ...after all I've never changed my blogs since I started blogging. IF it HAS to change then I would go for the 3rd one.... I still LOVE the original though. xx

Sheilagh said...

The middle one does it for me:)

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

I'm crazy for color, so of course I was drawn to the middle one. The other two look very similar to the original, just without the added color. I'm so surprised (well, not really) at how much the phenomenon has grown over these past two + years.

I may not make it to WOYWW this week because I can't access any of my external drives, only my operating system, and that's not where my camera card "lives." Just wanted you to know.

Annie said...

I'm with Di on this one....old knickers would do but if you're asking us to choose I'd say the middle one....love the colours :-) :-)
Hugs,
A x
ps as long as you don't ever change Julia cos we love you just the way you are x

Ann B said...

I like the muted shades of number 3 but for impact it has to be the middle one.

Lunch Lady Jan said...

Number 1 for me - the all important WOYWW text is bolder!! xx

Jennie -The Artistic Stamper said...

no 2 for me.. but whichever one you choose.. we will be right behind you! I am azed almost 3 years...fabulous!
xx

Scrapcat 1 said...

I like the first one as its stylish and elegant just like you!

Whimcees said...

Hello!

All three are WOW! - I can't wait to see which one you choose! I like the last one best. :<)Wishing you a happy day today!

Hugs,

Barbara Diane

Caro said...

Love them all and can't decide. I look forward to seeing which you have chosen!

Hettie said...

I am with Elizabeth in that I like No 3 but hey - it is your baby so you have what colours you like Honey!!
Funny I was thinking only the other day about what I could make for the PIF this year - presuming you ARE doing one - aren't you?!!!

Siobhan Brignull said...

gotta be the bright vertical waves for me x

Princess Judy Palmer said...

I like the paisley one best, but the middle one is great too. I'm not keen on the 3rd choice. Boy, do you have your work cut out for you!

Kyla said...

Happy with the original, but out of the 3 new ones, the 3rd is my favourite, not too twee and quite stylish.
Kyla

Pauline said...

OOO they are all lovely ! My fav is number 3 :-)

PaperArtsy said...

I'm liking the pink paisley a lot...did I just say that??? Pink!! Wow. It must be a new year!!

sandysewin said...

I'm not usually a fan of paisley, but I really like the first one best.

Create With Joy said...

Ok, here goes - one of those you got to love it non-answers that will not advance the cause one bit (tee hee!)

I think the ones on the two ends are REALLY pretty - but - I think the middle one pops the most.

Personally - I think all three rock, and in true, WOYWW customize and personalize it as you go style - I think you should pick the one you like for your blog - and then let everyone else pick the one they want for theirs (or for their particular post) - Nikki style (since we are ALL spoiled from that! :-)

(can't say I didn't warn ya in advance!

Neet said...

Numero two has the impact but I do like numero one. Off to see the blog and report in. Hugs, Neet xx

peggy aplSEEDS said...

the middle one is my favorite. love the bright colors!

Lulu/cy said...

I wonder what the Psych's would say as to the choice of the votes, i.e.
Middle(bright 4 thoses who R under 40, very outgoing, love 2 party, Un-Orgazied, BUT knows where things R @{eventuallyLOL})
Right,(somewhat calm conservative,likes all
in-order,always is on time,Knows exactly what's
where. Is generally in bed by:___,except 4 NYeve
Far Left, All around rounded contemporary gay, Yet colors in the lines, sometimes 2B "in" will color on the outside. Likes 2 B accepted. Might be organized but doesn't mind a mess.
I just wonder accoding to the votes what they would reveal about who WE ARE. I'm sure That no matter what, ALL of them ARE BEST FOR ALL THREE
TYPES. I LIKED the suggestion that was made above, 2 Allow All WWYWW 2 CHOOSE the BADGE of THEIR CHOICE<(^O^)> Perhaps this is what they were trying 2 "get@"when they asked U all of thoses Questions??("Humm...I see.."says Dr.S Freud. I wonder what data the badges actually would reveal, age group??personality types?Humm!

voodoo vixen said...

I'm actually really liking number 3 but would want all the letters the same height as in number 2...

HeARTworks said...

It's amazing how WOYWW has wiggled itself into my affections, Julia! What you said about us seeming to have nothing to do is so true, but we make time don't we? Once, I was even in the emergency room of a hospital when I asked my sister Peggy to link me up, and she laughed and laughed and laughed, because she said she thought my conditon was serious! It was! Deep vein thrombosis, and all I could think of was I should not miss WOYWW!! Whatever have you done!

Robin Panzer Art said...

I'm partial to the colorful one in the middle, but truth be told, I'll love WOYWW regardless of the chosen logo. Can't wait to see which is your favorite!

Unknown said...

I like the first one :)
Celestial Things

Joanne said...

The middle one knocked my eye out Julia, so bright and cheerful. x

Craftin Suzie (Susan Wykes) said...

Love the first one Julia all that paisley and pink whoppeeXX

Unknown said...

OOOh FUN! I love switching up my blog and badges. :)

donnalouiserodgers said...

phwshaw

I came looking for knickers and I get logos, do we stitch the new logo badge to our knickers and flash them at each other at craft shows (similar to a masons secret handshake only obviously our knicker flashing would not be so secret?)

middle for impact sewn slap bang in the middle front of the rubber safety pants for days when you want to fly but dare not

first is very nice on the eye, stitched seductively to the hip strap of the g string

the third i like best right in the middle of the back side of the M&S white midi's

am i influencing you at all????

will hop over and tell your sis...and try from that angle

ah found the flagpoled knickers reference from Di, I can sleep easy tonight now....knowing it's at full mast' over at Dunnit towers
