For reporting the bugs, use one bug report card per bug, not one Trello card per type of bug. So if you find 3 broken links in the same page/floater plus one crash when clicking OK, write 4 bug reports.
Try to gauge the size of each bug, and try to allocate your own time accordingly. If you think it's a nasty bug, spend more time being specific about it. If it's a typo or a minor issue, spend less time. Just make it reproducible.
Follow this general template for creating bug reports, especially in a tool like Trello where you really just get a freeform text field plus a few extras. Each bug report should contain:
Summary (card title): Brief sentence saying what the problem actually is.
Steps to Reproduce:
Try reproducing it several times and note your success rate. e.g. Reproduced 3/5 attempts.
That's a really basic start (not complete at all!) to at least get you to a basic level you can build on piece by piece.
If you're going to do this for more projects, a good book to invest in is Rex Black's Managing The Test Process. It basically gets you set up as an independent QA consultant able to approach any project, whether at a big company or a little company with zero QA.
There are many routes into and through QA, but good bug reporting and basic bug management is a core skill you'll use all career long.
Best of luck!
