This is INCREDIBLE!
What a great take on the inspiration, Michele! Nicely done!
I want a window like this on my mantle! Love that ironwork, the wood frame, shiplap and colored dots! Awesome word too! You always do these inspirations so well!
This is AMAZING! I didn't even notice the shiplap (or the brick) in the photo, I was just concentrating on that beautiful window! You managed to duplicate it perfectly...so pretty!
Perfect take on the photo, Michele. I love how you made your own garland and the ironwork is superb.
Gaaah! All those things you loved in the inspiration photo are so beautifully represented in this gorgeous, genius card. So many elements in one cohesive design. It is truly stunning.

What an awesome interpretation of the inspiration photo, Michele. I must admit that I had to look up the word "shiplap" and I am still not sure exactly what it is, but it surely looks fabulous in your design! Beautiful autumn card!

Wow, wow, wow! I swear you are so good at these inspiration cards my friend! I am so in love with this card and I so can't get over how much it looks like that frame in the inspiration photo! You are incredibly talented, you know?! I love the die you used in the center of your "wooden" frame, that is so cool! The beautiful greenery and enamel dots and the orange "thanks" the shiplap. It is all so beautiful, so Thanksgiving-y. Gorgeous!!!! Hugs, Brenda
Wow! Such a creative way to use this die! I can safely say I would never have thought of it as ironworks, but it works!!! lol Beautiful adornments, too, it looks so fall-erific!
