In the twelfth hangout in our series – Work At Home Moms Strategy Hour, Erica Mueller, Janice and I will share PicMonkey tips, tricks and secrets to improve your photos and create professional looking graphics for your blog or business website.
Janice and I have huge respect for professional graphic artists and we absolutely recommend hiring professionals for important projects whenever you can afford to.
But these days, creating powerful images to share through social media and use on your blog and business website has become a regular task that you need to be able to do yourself.
In this live hangout, we will walk you through how to use #PicMonkey to edit and create pinnable, share-worthy images.
Also see our recent PicMonkey Clone Stamp Tutorial and other posts on our PicMonkey Resource Page.
If you’ve published your own PicMonkey tutorial post, add it to our linky list here.

BlogHer13 Photos
Janice was at BlogHer13 in Chicago and took photos during the conference and at many of the parties and events. We edited all the photos in PicMonkey. We ran many through their quick filters and added fun embellishments.
You can see the full set of our BlogHer13 photos in the gallery below. There are 66 photos and you can either watch the slideshow or click on the arrows to browse through them…

Wishing Kelli Well On Her New Projects
Our friend Kelli Miller is so busy running her very successful Learn to Blog hangouts with Crystal – and she’s got something new coming up as well – so she’s stepped down from these WAHM sessions.
They’ve created a new website and will be starting an additional training program, so watch for more from them.
We’re thrilled for her successes and we’re sad to not have her on these sessions anymore.
