Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American friends!
While we're all enjoying lots of yummy leftovers this week, the team at Inspired By is shaking things up a bit: a COLOR challenge! Read all about it here, then pick and choose the colors you're inspired to use for your cards!
There is an abundance of beauty in this #IB197 photo! I had an unused, brand spankin' new group of wonderful Wplus9 products that, in my humble opinion, were meant for this week! You'll let me know if I'm wrong, right?
I was drawn to the dishes in delft blue, the gold in the table runner, and those gorgeous flowers [and wine] in Merlot! The perfect colors to choose for this
Wplus9 Flora & Fauna 3 set - I was lucky enough to grab a special bundle @dawnwplus9 offered when these products released! OH do I love it when a company includes a die for their main sentiment, too. You'll find the blue and gold repeated in the Scripted Backgrounds.
So! Which colors will you be inspired by? Believe me, if I [the color challenged one] can do it, anyone can! My teamies have offered even more inspiration on our Inspired By blog! Always a fun read - you know, over that second piece of pie!

Happy Thanksgiving my friend. Lovely bold colors for your fabulously designed card. Love it.
What a fabulous background script stamp and your choice of colours from the photo is inspirational. Wonderful colouring, the prettiest of cards and what a super cute little bee. I spotted the 'red wine' too....lol x. Happy Thanksgiving to you my friend xx
Oh my, this is simply gorgeous, Michele. All those colors combined and your artistic skills have made a truly lovely card. Who ever told you that you're color challenged?
Beautiful watercoloring and use of your wonderful new craft toys, Michele. TFS your beauty. I am off to check out the DT's beauties. Happy Holidays. Love and Hugs..Nancy
Truly beautiful! Love your colored beauty over the two-tone background script. And YES, that sentiment and die is fantastic
Happy Thanksgiving my friend! Such a beautiful card... makes me think of summer whilst I'm freezing my butt of here right now
Wow, this is really stunning Michele! I love how you colored the bird and oh, that little bumble bee is so cute! Wonderful inspiration!
Happy Thanksgiving a smidge late. Although, really, it's never too late to be thankful, right? And I am thankful for you and all the beautiful creations you share. This beauty included. Wow. That turkey and pie sure agreed with you and kept your creative juices flowing. :)
Vibrant, bold, & BEAUTIFUL Michele!! These colors definitely work together and also work perfectly on your new stamp set...absolutely GORGEOUS card! (LOVE the background too!!) Hugs. :0)
This is breathtaking, my friend! The bluebird is awesome and so is the flower! The script in the background adds a wonderful dimension and I love how you've stamped it in two colors and directions! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Oh, I LIKE this! Those colors worked beautifully with your new set. The script in the background is one of my favorite parts! Pretty card, Michele! Hope you and Tom enjoyed a blessed Thanksgiving!
Your card is so beautifully created Michele, from design, to color choices, to focal point, it is so pleasing and another stunner!
Lovin' the way you interpreted the photo and used these colors! Of course, you know I love my blue, but that bee.....so cute! As is that amazing background and sentiment! Hope you had a marvelous Thanksgiving!
Just lovely and beautifully enhanced by that scripty background xx
I hope you had a great Thaknsgiving Day, Michele.
You did a wonderful job of using the colors in the IB photo to create this stunning card! I especially love your blue bird. The shade of the blue is so beautiful. The gold and blue subtle script background is tastefully done to bring out the beauty of the focal images.

Beautiful interpretation of the colors and the image with the big sentiment... it's perfect! Wishing you a "Happy Thanksgiving weekend" :) !!!
What a gorgeous design Michele!!
Wow, this is a gorgeous card Michele!!! I love the colors you took from the inspiration photo, they are so pretty. Even when you watercolor in bold colors, it looks amazing. When I do it, it just looks gaudy. lol I'm in love with this beautiful blue bird nestled in those beautiful flowers and leaves. You never ceased to amaze me with your cards my dear! Hugs, Brenda
We share a love of birds and flowers so this card really speaks to me, Michele. It's so beautifully colored and designed with the scripty background. Thank you so much for my darling Thanksgiving card. I appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Really pretty I love the blue bird!
I just bought some WP9 stamps and dies and can't wait to get my hands on them. Dawn is so very talented. And you've taken her drawing talent and added to it with this fabulous card!
