Take Time for Yourself!

Posted on by ModGirl

All week long I work on creating new graphics, working on my websites, uploading stuff, downloading stuff and doing normal everyday things that keep me busy all the time. And the weekends are about the same these days. I was sitting here thinking about the last time I actually made a new tag. It’s been awhile. But this morning I was determined to sit down and create some new ones. And it seems like a really long time since I was able to do that.

Which got me thinking, how many times have we wanted to do things but kept putting them off? And we always make excuses why we can’t do those things? I do that all the time these days and sometimes we just need to stop and do something for ourselves. And I don’t think that’s selfish at all. We need to find things to do to make us happy and also a way of letting off steam. Because if we don’t, we can become unhappy and that makes it way into our everyday life. And when that happens, we sometimes hurt those we love. It might not be intentional to hurt those we love but the pressure can build up and we hit back at those we love and then it’s too late.

So, I decided this morning I would sit down and do something I wanted to do for a change. I love making tags and most of the time I get so busy I can’t find the time to make them anymore. And even though I have made so many over the years I never get tired of making them. You would think it would get boring after awhile but it never does. That surprises me sometimes when I think about that because let’s face it, we all get bored doing the same things all the time, lol. Well, at least I know I DO, lol.

Anyway, I started making some new tags and wanted to share one of those tags with you today. I created a set of tag extras for this tag also and you can download them by clicking on the link below the preview. Thanks for stopping by and hugs,

My Graphics Site Back Online!

Posted on by ModGirl

I removed my graphics site and forgot to add it back after I turned it into a paid subscription site, lol. So you can find the link HERE and I just created some new Holiday themed graphics yesterday and I’ll be sharing those sometime next week. Most of them are too large to send through the online group so I need to resize them first. But I will post all of them as soon as I can do that! Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that my graphics site is back online in case you were wondering what happened to it, lol. Yes, I am forgetful sometimes,

Thanks for stopping by and hugs,

Refresh Time!

Posted on by ModGirl

So, I thought it was time that I did a refresh of my scrapbook graphic sites. I now have 2 sites for scrapbook graphics; 1 for my tagger kits and 1 for digital scrap kits. And I figured that since I make both types of kits I would refresh 2 of my sites to update them. So you can now find all my tagger sized kits located HERE and all my digital kits located HERE. And both links are also added to the sidebar menu too.

And while I was at it, I was playing in Paint Shop Pro the other day and thought I would create 2 new digital scrap kits. And both kits are holiday themed; 1 for Valentines Day and 1 for Christmas. You might want to check them out when you visit my site.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and hugs,

Revamped My Scrapbook Freebies Site!

Posted on by ModGirl

So, I recently updated my scrapbook freebies website. When I created it the last time, there were only 4 freebies available for download. Now, you’ll find a whole lot more freebies added to the site along with a complete overhaul of the site too. So, it will look much different than it did before but hopefully it will be to your liking, lol.

Before my old computer died I added all my scrapbook freebies to an external hard drive for storage. And I was recently looking in some of those folders and found all sorts of stuff that I would like to share. So, I have been slowly adding them all to the site. And there are so many to add, that it will take a little while before I can post them all to my site. Oh, and because they use so much web space I decided to upload them all to MediaFire.  So when you click on any of the links for my scrapbook freebies, you’ll automatically be transported to MediaFire to download them.

Anyway, that site has been updated and I have also been considering adding my shop back for my scrapbook kits too. I have a lot of scrapbook kits that I have made over the years and at the moment I have them for sale using the Buy My Store type of product. All my kits are stored in a password protected area on my site, so after your payment, you’ll receive the link to the site along with a user name and password to login to it.

I think that about does it for the updates of my sites at the moment. And I will keep you updated is there is anything else going on, lol. Thanks for stopping by and hugs, Mod Girl.

A Few Changes

Posted on by ModGirl

So, you’re probably thinking. Wow, there is a lot of changes going on with you lately. And you’d be right about that, lol. I have a habit of collecting domain names. Domain names are a good investment because you can use them for websites and then mature the domains and resell them later to make a profit from them. I have done this in the past and made a good living doing so. However when the dot com bubble burst there were many who were left with domains that they couldn’t use or some that they wanted to get rid of rather cheaply. I was able to collect some pretty good domains when that happened and I still enjoy buying domains if I think I can either use the domain or mature the domain and then sell it later down the road.

Anyway, that is one of the reasons why things may change for me. So, I have a couple of new domains that I purchased lately; junkjournalpaper.com and htmlstationery.com

The Junk Journal Paper site is already created and I have added a lot of papers there already. But the second domain; HTML Stationery is one I am working on right now. And so far I have created the site but I haven’t yet added any email stationery to it. I will do that shortly but I also wanted to update you about my modgirldesign.com website. I have removed that site because the 2 primary things I was sharing there were the 2 things I am now sharing on the 2 new domains I purchased; Junk Journal Paper and HTML Stationery. And since I now have the sites to match the names of the things that I’ll be sharing I didn’t feel the need for the domain name Mod Girl Design any longer.

I know, it’s a lot to take in but there IS a method to my madness, lol. The reason why I wanted to have domains that best describes what I’ll be sharing is because the search engines will pick up those domains a lot quicker because of that. They look for whatever your site description is and if the domain name coincides with that name then that works to your advantage. And the best way to have more visitors to your site is to get better searches in search engines. Do you get what I’m telling you now? I hope so. I mean it isn’t really that hard to understand when you think about it but I didn’t want some of you to think that I am a crazy loon or something with all the changes I make to my websites. I mean, sure I might be a little crazy but then, who isn’t these days? lol.

And with that, I will call it a day. Thanks for stopping by and hugs, Mod Girl.
