Calendars finished!

I belong to a calligraphy study group, and each year we create a calendar to sell or give to friends.  We just finished collating the 2013 version, and it's a great one!  Here's some pics of my two pages, as well as the whole group with finished copies.  (I forgot to take pics during the process -- we were too busy).

 Usually we only get to do one page per year, but our credits person moved a couple of months ago, so I volunteered to do it.  I used pastel pencils on black paper to try to get the look of a chalkboard.  And for my June page, I used some of the techniques I have learned in Joanne Sharpe's Letter Love class.  When we get together every year to put the calendars together, there's lots of oohing and aahing over everyone's techniques!
