How long did it take for you to get added to her forum for the class? I signed up over the weekend and haven’t heard anything yet.

Hopefully soon for both of us! I figured she had a Refupea influx, so I reminded myself to be patient. I checked my spam and junk boxes to make sure.

Signed up this morning. My birthday is next week, so it's a gift to myself.
Happy to support a great teacher and advocate for our craft.

Her welcome emails are routinely swallowed by filters. She usually recommends trying to log in even if you haven't gotten an email. But she's also a one woman show so it can take a little while to process if she has had a lot of people turn out

This is the link to the log-in but she'll send you log-in info in that first email if you are a new student so you do need that. Then you change you password and are good to go. www.shimelle.com/forum/ucp.php?mode=login

So I logged in last week, using the user name and password she had provided me. I then changed the password and user name. I clicked "remember me" and was automatically logged in whenever I clicked the site. But this time, I need to log in and I can't seem to be able to log in today. My computer is having a fit b/c it says this site "is not secure", and neither my saved password nor my original one will work.

I can't even remember the last time I took a scrapbooking class, much less one of Shimelle's. I decided to sign up for this one, though! Thanks for posting about it!

So I've been following this thread from the beginning but I no longer scrap 12 x 12. I'm a PL scrapper but I have watched several of her videos and she's just so fun to watch in general. Would there be any benefit for a PL scrapper or not so much?

Those have pocket pages. She also did a baby album in pocket pages - I think her son is almost 7, so search back to 2014/15 and see what you can find.

Would there be any benefit for a PL scrapper or not so much? I do about 90% pocket pages and then a handful of 12x12 (or this year, 9x12 since that's the size I'm working in). I always get something out of her classes. I think because her teaching style is so clear, she's so enthusiastic, that her love of scrapping helps motivate me. Hard to say for sure without having seen the content yet, but if you enjoy her, I think you'd get your money's worth out of the class.

I wonder if it was something temporary or if you’ll have to email her to get a password reset. I wonder why it suddenly started playing up for you. Btw I do know that the “forgot my password” function on her site rarely works. She always recommends emailing her directly for password issues.

Thanks, joblackford. The first response to my Forgot my Password went to junk mail. I found it by doing an email search for Shimelle. I then had trouble following the instructions, especially with my pc throwing up pop ups to warn me at every step. Anyway, I finally managed to activate my new password and then use it to get onto the board. My PC has now saved the password for me, so hoping next time it won't be a problem. Looking forward to the class. I have been watching some of her old youtube videos while I wait.

Dumb question. Where will I find the classes? On her class message board? Or should there be a link sent by email?

I got an email with a pdf and a link to the forum where you can find the video. PDF is also on the forum so you should be able to find everything there.

Thanks, cbscrapper. My pc is terrified of Shimelle, apparently, and keeps sending her emails to junk mail.

Thanks, cbscrapper . My pc is terrified of Shimelle, apparently, and keeps sending her emails to junk mail. grammadee Did you work everything out? Found the email? Can you check if you can create an exception filter for her email address so any future communication doesn't end up in the e-junk yard? I'm about to sit down with a latte and a KitKat to watch the prologue video. I love that Shimelle is so open and gives you the direct link to the Vimeo videos so you can save them rather than just rely on her board just in case. So refreshing in the scrap world!

Thanks for asking, sleepingbooty. The last time I logged into her site, I asked it to "remember me". I was able to click on cbscrapper's link to go straight to the page, and I was automatically logged in. Not sure if my FireFox doesn't trust the Brit's, or if is an issue with the ProBoards. When I has having trouble with pop ups, the IT guy from the Geek Squad had me switch to FireFox from Windows Edge, and then cleaned up all the sites I usually frequent, so I can use FireFox to access the Peas. And most sites it claims are "unsafe", it simply gives me an option to over ride the blocking, but that option is not available for Shimelle's site. Weird. I guess if that site is hacked, we all go down together!
