Our second July reveal ...

Welcome to our mid month reveal. 

This month we are celebrating the country with this delightful painting by Elioth Gruner called  Spring Frost Study.

The CRITERIA is a COUNTRY / RURAL theme

HELENE

My rural theme is about camping in a forest.

MARY

This is a photo I took driving into work a couple of weeks ago. The cows in the fog.

ANGELIKA

I was inspired by the muted colours, the horizontal lines, and the farm animal theme. I also took inspiration from the splotchy cows to make a lot of splotches on my layout

KAREN

 My inspiration is just everything from outside.

AN'JENIC

My inspiration came from the cows and the outdoor background.

TONE

This photo is from a forest in Norway. Some friends of  ours rented this little cabin for several years and we went to visit them

JANE

I was inspired by both the colours in the artwork and the theme of cows and knew immediately which photos I would use for this challenge :)

Now it is your turn, we'd love to see your own interpretation ...
