When I first started scrapbooking, I stumbled, quite accidentally, upon an online community while I was browsing the net for inspiration. I can honestly say that everything I learned about this craft, I learned because I was a part of a community of women who were willing to take the time to share and teach and encourage me to keep making pages. Initially, it was the resources and helpful tips that drew me to the site. But in the end, it was the social aspect, the friendships and the connections I made that kept me coming back to the site and most importantly, kept me scrapbooking.
I think this model of learning can be applied to any craft and it is for this reason that I am especially excited about this week’s giveaway: a one-year membership to Clickin’ Moms.
Clickin’ Moms is a online community of women who have a passion for photography. If you’re a photography enthusiast, I think this is a must have! Whether you are a beginner, a hobbyist looking to expand your skill set, or a seasoned pro looking for tips on how to better manage your photography business, the community at Clickin’ Moms has something to offer for all levels of photographers. Clickin’ Moms features informative and easy to understand tutorials on everything from photography basics to post processing and tips on how to manage your photography business and so much more.
To enter for your chance to win, simply leave a comment by Friday, October 15th at 11:59 PM (PST). Increase your chances of winning by posting about this giveaway via twitter or your blog. Be sure to come back here and post a link in the comments section (please post as a new comment each time).
Winner will be announced here on Saturday, October 16th. Good luck!
Hey Lizzie … I'm not a "mom" (or a "mum" as we say here in the UK!) but I do love the idea of improving my photography skills … so thanks for the chance of winning! Hug, sue.falstaff
I have a DSLR and I am still stuck on the auto feature. I want to get off of that and make some wonderful and beautiful photos that will help preserve the memories. Thank you
I've been making excuses not to buy my dream present, an SLR, for over 2 years as I'm too scared to become overwhelmed and, well basically, not be good enough. But a membership to clickin'moms would be the perfect support to get me going! It sounds awesome – thanks so much for introducing me to them, even if I'm not lucky enough to win
I'm not a mom (yet) but im a photo-bug-wanna-be, so would love to learn all I can to becoming the latter! Thank you Liz for the chance! I hope I win, woohoo!
I used to have a membership to Clickin Moms! They are fabulous, supportive and fun! Had to quit due to budget issues! Would love to hook up with them again! Thanks for the chance!
What a great opportunity. I'm new to your blog, and to clickin moms but would love to win. I'm now your latest follower, this site rocks. Thanks for all the inspiration.
I just had my third baby…a little girl…and am in the process of taking on online photography class to improve my skills. I'd love to have this as a resource to get better and better and photography!
I got a new Nikon D5000 camera a few months ago. It is my first DSLR camera, and I am pretty much in love!!! However, I'm a little overwhelmed with all of the capabilities that this camera possesses. I feel like I am failing my camera if I don't utilize every last drop of it! I cannot even tell you how fantastically perfect it would be to win this! PLEASE!!! please..pretty please…. 😀
This is an AMAZING giveway! I discovered Clickin' Moms very recently and what a find! An entire year is too good to be true! Thank you so much of this great opportunity — someone is going to be very blessed!
I have seen this site before but never had the chance to join. This would be an amazing prize! It would be a wonderful chance to learn techniques and secrets of others to help improve my photography skills! Thank you for the chance to win!
Thanks for the opportunity to win. THis is a terrific community!
