I do see your Google+ followers button but that doesn't work for the non-Google+ bloggers (or at least I can't figure out how to view the G+ blogs I follow) so in case you want to add the old Google Followers button (it's a bit hard to find), here are my rough instructions:<br /><br />Design<br />Layout<br />Add a Gadget<br />More Gadgets<br />Scroll way down and choose Followers<br /><br />Okay, I think I've given you way more than my 2 cents worth today but I do wish you all the best! I love cardmaking and blogging!KT Fit Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08869423405259440438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9005056961459638051.post-76120701807804442732016-09-13T18:35:57.382-04:002016-09-13T18:35:57.382-04:00Hello there!

I have found the best way to get visitors/comments on your blog is to visit/comment on other people's blogs! If you're looking for new followers, find other crafters whose style you like, follow their blogs and ask them to return the favour. I would also suggest a Followers button. I started out with only Bloglovin but it was hard to get followers. A few people suggested I add a Followers button and shortly thereafter my followers started growing. While I don't have a gazillion followers, I'm very happy with my numbers. Maybe give these suggestions a try before throwing in the towel! Hope this helps and I wish you all the best!KT Fit Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08869423405259440438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9005056961459638051.post-71399756618695340612016-09-12T08:02:13.487-04:002016-09-12T08:02:13.487-04:00I've just found your blog, when one of my frie...I've just found your blog, when one of my friends entered your challenge, and I'm going to be entering it myself later this week (not today as I've just got back from being away from home and have mountains of laundry to deal with before I can get my crafting goodies out to play). I've not had a good look round yet, so I don't know how long you've been blogging, but it does take a long time to build up a following of regular visitors and commenters. Your challenge will help with that, because just as I did, people will see it on their friends' blogs and come over to take a look. <br />Have you submitted your challenge to Challenges for Days and the Paper Playful blog yet? I am on the Challenges for Days team and can get it listed there for you if you haven't already done it. <br />As for Pinterest, I don't know the answer. A few of my cards get repined, usually those I least expect to be, while I see some very ordinary things getting repined 10s of1000s of times. It's a mystery! <br />JaneJane Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01380462044989718673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9005056961459638051.post-76547432051788789652016-09-11T05:09:05.550-04:002016-09-11T05:09:05.550-04:00I've just found my way to your blog through so...I've just found my way to your blog through someone else.
