Labels aplenty!

Day 2 of the Biannual Blogathon Bash.
I tackled cleaning up my labels and learned how to display them on my blog.  I love the look of them. Aren't I lame!  LOL.

I am glad I signed up for this...my blog needs quite a bit of work and I just didn't know how to tackle it.

So far I have:
1. Add pages to my header.
2. Cleaned up my sidebars.
3. Learned how to use Google calendar and decided I don't like it...It is just too technical for me to relax with it.
4. Learned how to make a photo collage and inserted one into my previous flower post. http://scrapsoflifebyscrappymo.blogspot.ca/2012/06/sea-of-flowers.html
5. I have rewritten that same post using some writing hints from the mini challenge "How to improve your writing".
6. I am half way through learning how to write a recipe post that allows the recipe to be printed on a recipe card.  I have the post written and saved. I just got to the point of adding the pictures and realized that while I have the before pictures, I do not have a photo of the cooked item! Drat!!! Oh well, I will just have to bore you with yet another post today, complete with pictures of my yummy RAW sockeye salmon. Sorry about that!

Off to finish up that recipe post and then I will tackle creating a blogging journal to track my contest submissions, post schedule, etc. There are some lovely downloads to assist me with the journal making.

Hi
can't find a link to do the labels on my blog. Yours look great. I didn't like the calender either.

Thanks for getting back to me if you do have a link that would be great. It will be my project for tomorrow:-)))

Wow, that's a LOT!!! I don't know how to do most of that stuff, but would like to add the links at the top under the header, those are nice.

I went back to your previous post and the collage is amazing, wishing I had signed up for it now too but I think I better get used to general blogging first, I am still a novice! Anne x
