Summer Time with Graphic 45

Hello everyone,

Well, summer is here in Texas! The kids are out of school, its hurricane season, and it's hot as...you know what!  It's also time
for another strutt-ya-stuff challenge at Eclectic Ellapu.  This month's theme is "SUMMER" yes it is!!  For my challenge inspiration project I am going to continue with my inspired calendar series from Eclectic Paperie.  I used the July month to model my calendar page.  I'm in Texas and during this time it's all baseball and the Texas Rangers and American Independence (July 4th).  I changed up a few things on my calendar page to incorporate baseball and the 4th. Nothing says summer like our heat, the beach, baseball, and firework on the 4th.  I am loving the calendar pages.  It also helps that I'm doing 8x8 calendar pages.  I can get through a page in about a hour (now that is fast for me).   I also decided to use the empty mini calendars and eventually I will have tiny little numbers that I can use over and over.   Here are few pictures for you to enjoy.   Til' next time...
