Month in Photographs - July

I think the most important thing that happened this July was starting my newsletter (4) with MailChimp.  I am so jazzed!  The temperatures were in the 100s almost every day;  that certainly kept people away from the neighborhood park (3).  But Buster and I still enjoyed the pond (7).  Circles played a key role in my artwork.  I decided to make my calendar (1) using my large hole puncher for each day.  Then the Sketchbook Challenge theme for the month was circles (2).  I participated in the BBArtisans Challenge (5) and two of the Art Journaling Ning challenges; one involved mixing acrylic paint with glue (6)  That was a new experience for me.  I love a challenge!
