I received a ton of inspiration from Laurel's photo this week: the texture, the leaves, the colors, that big word - the black & white buffalo plaid? See if you can find it...
In fact, I was inspired enough to make a second helping... once isn't enough for that gorgeous Mondo Oak and dies!
We sure hope to inspire YOU to play along with IB93 this week!!

WOW!! These are gorgeous, Michele. Love how the buffalo plaid worked its way into your cards and the texture and those big leaves. What encouraging cards! Big hugs!!!
ReplyDeleteWowza! Both are simply amazing!
ReplyDeletePillow on the right of the photo. I'd say you covered all the elements in it beautifully. Inspiration must have been flowing from your fingers.
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love! Jo x
ReplyDeleteI LOVE, LOVE, LOVE both of your cards! The details are amazing and that bold sentiment is perfect! That buffalo checked acorn makes me smile! Just fabulous, My Friend! XX
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Michele!
ReplyDeleteIt’s all about that little hint of buffalo check.....delightful!
ReplyDeleteOh, how I love these!! That little plaid acorn speaks volumes!!
ReplyDeleteI love BOTH of these....perfect for that challenge photo! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
ReplyDeleteTwo really GORGEOUS cards, Michele! I love how you played with the Mondo Oak leaf...so stunning!
ReplyDeleteWonderful designs! Perfect mixture of gray and brown and even CAS!! I can't get enough of the black and white plaid as well. Great!!!!
ReplyDeleteLaurel's inspiration hit you right in your wheel house of color- and you ran with it. Fabulous completely and totally Michele cards and I love them.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards, Michele. I love the different backgrounds you used - the stitches have a windy feel. Love the details of the touches of plaid, twine and gold.
ReplyDeleteI love how the simplicity of the colors make this gorgeous leaf a big hit, Michele! That bit of buffalo plaid adds a fun element!
ReplyDeleteHow creative are you and fabulous how you have interpreted the photo x. Love the contemporary black and white check acorn and the inspirational striking sentiment. Marvellous second card too and with an acorn and the 'mighty' sentiment....what a perfect combination x. Loving these Michele x
ReplyDeleteOk, I know I've said many times before, but I have to say again that you're fantastic at interpreting IB photos, Michele. Not only the way you use elements in the photo on your card, but your whole card has a story and I don't feel like you made the card "based on the photo". (I hope you understand what I mean.)
ReplyDeleteI especially love the first card with the modern acorn.

Plaid acorn? Now don't that beat all! (said in my best Andy Griffith voice)
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful, Michele! Love the colors, the pop of plaid and then there's that gorgeous Mondo Oak!!!
