Here is the loveliness I'm referring to:
There is just something so elegant about the colors in the photo. Since I've posted photos of my own Christmas display in our new home, I couldn't resist 'building' that buffet! The words escaped me - bet you never thought I'd say that!
Mama Elephant Peek-a-frame window - twice! from wood-grain paper that Bobby gave me,
but I blended a bit of Crumb Cake ink onto-
really old Fancy Pants paper-even older Queen & Co. pearls-
Die-namics wreath
I hope you all are staying inside, crafting 'til your hearts are content! Your visits warm my heart ... who cares if it's cold outside!

So happy to be honored by Tracey at
Inspired by All the Little Things!!!
Well leave it to you to make the most gorgeous card for this inspiration! You chalkboard is absolutely amazing. I am trying to figure if you use patterned paper or if you have a new embossing technique to share with me. You do neutrals so well my friend. Thank you so much for sharing with us at All the Little Things this week!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful "building"! Love your distress wood-look with crumb cake all over it, those precious red pearls and sophisticated wreath!
ReplyDeleteThis is so you Michele!! Beautifully done, right down to that sweet polka dot bow!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how much I love this card.
ReplyDeleteI have a thing about tags (as you know)... but door or window cards also make me very happy.
I know not why, but they do.
Absolutely gorgeous in every way. X
Swoon.....I think this is just darling! That wood paper is amazing, but that chalkboard behind it...LOOOOOVE it! What a sweet confection you've shared today!
ReplyDeleteWow! Michele! Such a lovely card. I really like the window/hutch idea with the paper/chalkboard behind the panes. The wreath is so pretty hanging there and what a wonderful sentiment, too. So very pretty and cozy! Thanks so much for sharing! I see a bit of your signature grey (gray?), too. :) Hugs!
ReplyDeleteSimply stunning!!I want this window decor in my house. ;0)
ReplyDeleteI gave you woodgrain paper? If so, why don't I have any? I know I bought some at one time but I sure can't find it. I adore your card, Michele. It looks just like the buffet and that cute wreath with polka dot bow just screams "Michele".
ReplyDeleteWow, you really captured this one! Love this wonderfully cozy card!!
ReplyDeleteWow, this is such an amazing and gorgeous take on the photo! LOVE this card! Thanks so much for joining us in the challenge!
ReplyDeleteThis is adorable and cozy. I can just see that scene in real life in a warm and cozy home. And, of course, a fantastic sentiment--don't we all wish for all three.
ReplyDeleteNo, I never thought words would escape you :) I really love your take on this inspiration photo, Michele...Gorgeous color palette and the Peek-a-Frame window is perfect with your wreath and bow! Loving the chalkboard panel, too!
ReplyDeleteMichele, another winner I am sure. Fabulous card and the staging is perfect!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI love everything you do and how you do it. And love, too, how you use inspiration and then make the card your own. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, Michele! Fabulous take on the inspiration photo!
