Quirky Blogspot Site!

This is a personal blog and I want to spruce it up a bit. I am working with a wonderful illustrator who is creating the header for me, but I need someone who can assist with "the rest" like:
Solid background color (based on the header)
Coordinating link and heading colors - for sidebars, post titles, and all other headings.
Layout adjustments if needed.
Menu navigation bar or graphic sidebar titles
Custom coordinating footer - a graphic or containing items.
Coordinating highlighted text color
Blog button with grab-code
And you kind of have to help walk me through some of that.
Social media buttons (ie: Twitter, Facebook, etc)
Graphic divider between posts.
