It's the 1st August!


Wow, July seemed to just fly by didn't it? It must have been all the excitement of end of term activities at school, my son's birthday, my birthday, our wedding anniversary, and the start of the summer hols. Phew! But I managed to keep on top of my calendar ... just! I tried a looser style this month but I got a day out somewhere so you may notice that 4th July comes right at the end. It took me aaaaages to work out what was going on! Think I will go back to my more structured way of doing things, I can keep on top of it better.

I managed to visit all of the calendars this month (er..although it was very late in the month LOL!) and there is some fantastic calendar art out there. Woohoo! Well done everyone. If you make it to the end of the year it is amazing to look back on a whole year of calendar pages :-)

My August pages are a work-in-progress (late as usual), but for those of you who are always ready on time and raring to go, here is the link for July completed pages and / or August ready-to-go. See you all soon, I'll try and be more organised this month. Promise!

  5. Blimey Kate, I didn't even get to start my July Calender, July came and went in a flash!
    Your July calender is so lovely and filled in too!
    I will try real hard to do August, but next week I start my week of teaching Scrapbooking to 10 Kids aged 10, I cannot wait.
    It's my second year at a Private School's Summer School and I love it.
    It is only 5 minutes walk from my house too so easy peezy.

  6. Your pages are always so beautiful. I can see why they are sometimes late. You put so very much in each one before you even begin to write.

  8. Oh what a beautiful page. The colors are striking. I can't believe we are in August already. As much as I LOVE the calendar challenge, I wish it weren't already August! :)

  12. July looks great! I love the little doodles you've added to some dates. My date spaces are so small for August I may just be writing one word per day!

  13. Tee hee. Now you know why I gave up the structured approach and just write at random and not every day - then no one can tell if I forgot!
