Well, welcome to my new blog home. Many thanks to Little Hero Hosting for getting me up and running so quickly 🙂

I’d like to start off at my new blog home by saying thank you and welcoming my first 2 sponsors for the Digital Parents Conference – Belkin and Follow Me Sticker. I’ll be posting about both these great companies within the next week.

So I’d love it if you update your bookmarks/rss reader and don’t forget to follow me on Twitter and like me on Facebook.

So today was a bit of a *squee* day

First we had to buy new tyres for the car (not so much a *squee* moment as a *grrr $$$$* moment) then hubby bought me this

and then we went to find out if they could fix hubby’s phone and we ended up getting upgraded to these (and on a cheaper plan)

and then this happened

I bought my own domain name. I’ll be moving soon. I hope you’ll follow me

Well the Australian mummy bloggersphere is abuzz with the news. The Digital Parents Conference 2012 is happening! In March next year! In Melbourne! *Squee* (Early bird tickets sold out in less than a day!!)

I’m looking forward to going and finally getting to me so many amazing bloggers. Women I’ve stalked followed and admired from afar. Women like Kelley, Liz, Tina, Lori, Louisa and many others. And that’s not including the Tassie bloggers like Kel, Veronica, and Kim.

Then there is the amazing program of learning, networking, more learning, more networking and some giggles (if past blogger meet ups are anything to go by – Twitter was abuzz during the Australian Bloggers Conference). Did I mention THE ProBlogger is one of the speakers?

I’m seeking sponsorship. Going to blog conferences isn’t cheap and there is so much to organise – travel, accommodation, clothing, business cards….. and I’d love to get some business’ on board to help me out. Cause it’s all about the sharing, yes?

Why sponsor me? I’ve been blogging since 2005 and seen so many changes in the blogging world. I love writing about stuff and I’m hoping that by going to the conference I can get better at writing about stuff on my blog & all the social media stuffs.
This little blog is primarily a personal blog that touches on parenting, family, photography and crafting (mainly scrapbooking and art journaling). I love chatting away on Twitter, not so much on Facebook anymore but I still pop in to say hi. I love sharing

What am I offering?

* a dedicated blog post about your company and the product/service you offer;
* a review of the product/service (if applicable);
* mentioned in posts regarding Digital Parents Conference 2012 (before, during and after the conference);
* your logo on the back of my business cards (which will be handed out during the conference);
* sidebar advertising for the period leading up to the conference and for three (3) months after;
* mention on both Twitter and Facebook fan page as my sponsor for the conference

• All blog posts that mention your company will also include a link to your website

Does this sound like something you’d like to help me with? Or do you know someone who might be interested in helping me out? Email me. Cause it’s all about the love and learning (& networking & meeting ProBlogger & more networking & more learning & meeting awesome bloggers).

Wow I can’t believe it’s the 10th again already. Where has the month gone?

This month I thought I’d share with you 10 Art Journal pages I love. I’m really getting back into Art Journaling again and have found some awesome inspiration on Pinterest.

Gotta ask too, does anyone have a Smash book? I’m not sure if I should get one. Should I??

Anyways on to my 10 favourite Art Journal pages (at the moment)
