A List for Thursday

Going to start sharing lists of my favourites every Thursday.

Today my list is my 5 favourite places on the net to hang out right now (in no particular order)

1. Roll 2 Create

Roll2Create

One of my favourite scrapping sites (I’m kinda biased though cause I’m the owner lol) We’re currently undergoing a few updates and changes and are looking to our New Beginnings in January 2010. Feel free to stop by & say g’day.

2. Bub Hub

bubhub2

This is my main haunt for all things pregnancy & baby related. The ladies here are super friendly and always ready to lend an ear, support or advice.

3. Shimelle.com

Shimelle

Seriously I *pink puffy heart* Shimelle. Her classes are amazing. I’d love to take the Journal your Christmas class but I think I’ll wait til next year Happy what a great way to journal bub’s first Christmas.

4. Organized Christmas

Organizedchristmas

This site will hopefully help me be less stressed over the Christmas period. I’m taking part in the Christmas Countdown. You can read more about it @ my Christmas blog.

and finally

5. Log Your Memory

logyourmemory

A great forum. I’m doing The Gift of the Year 2010 class at the moment there and I bought the 2010 Memory Log Book e-book. Another site that will hopefully help me journal more.

So that’s my first list. What’s your favourite site right now?

Blogging for Scrapbookers

So we’ve only just started this class today but I’m loving it already. Shimelle’s classes are amazing.

*waves hello* to fellow classmates (& anyone else who is new to my blog). Welcome! Hope you enjoy reading my blog and I love to hear from my readers so feel free to say hi 🙂

Anywho onto today’s post.

What are my intentions for the next three weeks during this class (& hopefully beyond). Well I hope to post a bit more often and write more interesting blog posts. I also want to not feel guilty if I miss a day or two of blogging (but I’m trying not to do that during November – nablomopo and all lol). I want to share more of my photography and get more memories down so when I go to scrap them later I can actually remember what was going on and finally I want to create more and share more of my scrapbook pages

If you’re not taking part in Blogging for Scrapbookers and think it sounds like something you’d like to do, you can join us here.

Today I haven’t really done a whole lot. I’ve got an assignment finished for TAFE, only two more to go this year. Kinda watched the new Star Trek movie that hubby got today. It wasn’t bad. Was really a lazy day but that’s ok. It’s nice to have a day of doing very little as I know after February I probably won’t get many of them.

well that’s it for me today. Catch ya all 2morrow

Nablopomo

nablo1109.120x90

Yup I’m gonna give it a go this year. I’ve said I will for the last few years and never have. This year I’m determined to get it done 🙂 Hopefully November is an interesting month lol and not lots of “I’ve updated one of my other blogs” LOL

Still haven’t managed ay scrapping *sigh* been too busy with bub stuff & playing around with blog templates. speaking of blog templates – this one is in for a change soon…… bored with this theme lol

hope everyone has a great day!

New blogging/scrapping class

I’ve decided to take part in another one of Shimelle’s classes (I started an art journal one a few years back – must get round to finishing that one day). Her latest is called Blogging for Scrapbookers and it starts on Nov 2.
It includes info on how to set up a blog and all the business that goes with that (templates, tracking visitors etc); 15 emailed prompts; a year of blogging workbook and much more. I’m hoping it will get me blogging & scrapping a bit more as I’ve been in a bit of a slump lately.
Anywho you can read more about the class here.

I’ve started a Word doc where I’ve started journaling prompts and journaling for my preggo journal. as I get the pages done I can just add the journaling as it’s nearly all done 🙂 I’ve also started planning pages for bub’s album – just ideas for pages, LOs I like, poems, titles etc. If you want to share a link to some of your fav bub pages, link me up in the comments – I love looking at baby & preggo pages atm.

Hopefully I’ll have some new pages to share tonight. Planning on doing some scrapping while the boys play D&D.

A new AAM challenge blog

Check it out!

blogbutton

I’m working on the first challenge at the moment, which is “Your challenge is to create a layout focused on what you wish for.”

They are also having a Design Team call and I’m seriously thinking about applying.  Cause I love me some AAM scrapping (even though I hates having my photo taken).

Will hopefully have some pics to share with you all tonight or 2morrow…… just have to find the cable for the camera LOL

okies off to scrap! (yup the missing mojo seems to have returned)

New Blog

Wanna keep up to date with all things baby? Well head on over to From The Wolf’s Den for all my latest 🙂

Not much is happening here atm. still feeling queasy of a morning & evening. trying to keep myself busy 😉

Lot’s happening at Roll 2 Create

First – we’re moving the forum to a Ning community. Second we’re ending July with a week long Christmas in July event. Lots of fun & games. and finally sign up for the next competition – Casino Royale has opened.

A list of sites

(Day 2 of 31DBBB challenges is to post a list)

Today I’m sharing a list of my favourite scrapping sites (in no particular order)

and some of my favourite blogs

So what’s this blog about?

So day 1 of the 31DBBB (31 Days to Build a Better Blog) Challenge is to do an elevator pitch for our blogs. Basically letting you, the reader know what the blog is about.

Nightwolf’s Layouts – it’s all about me, my life and my scrapbooking. Occasionally I throw in a photo or two, do some enabling and anything else I feel like.

so that’s it in a nutshell. my blog is really just me sharing stuff. hopefully it will interest and maybe inspire.

Now on to day 2
