I'm only going to give you one guess why I HAD to play with Bobby's inspiration/moodboard challenge at Just us Girls... take a look:
If you guessed GREY, you'd be soooo right!
My first inclination was that fabulous window and I knew I had the right die for it. After a little shuffle through my supplies, and I found the right 'recipe' for my card. I hope they agree!
Mama Elephant: Four Window cover plate - cut from woodgrain paper
that I inked with Hickory Smoke and black soot.
Spellbinders: Woodland Tales vellum and Holiday Blooms dies for branches
Concord & 9th: Festive Blooms for orange berries
PTI: Vase Collection 12 - I modified the milk can making it a crock!
It has been a few days since I've shared - here are the next three Christmas cards for Bringing Smiles to Seniors: [thanks again, Bonnie for inspiring my playtime with that Wplus9 Joyful Poinsettias set!]
PTI Snowflake edger - Kristina's Finishing Touches [stitches]
PTI: deckle edge frames - Pinkfresh Basic Banners: Christmas sentiment
Waffle Flower: Round frame
I've counted and I'm at 161!! And on that note, I bid you adieu!

Thanks, so very much Bobby!

Oh, yes, the window, the colors, the berries! Yes, please! And more fabulous Christmas cards! It's utterly amazing what you're able to accomplish and I love it all!
161, that's excellent progress well done. Your 3 additions today are just great. I do love that background stamp. Your window card is fabulous too. Love the dark grey and red together xx
Over-achiever! Wow, those seniors are going to be blessed because you make amazing cards (these included), and you make A LOT! What a feat, Michele, you're amazing!
As par, YOU NAILED IT! Totally stunning card - as the others too! Thanks for sharing at JUGS
I guessed right about the grey...do I know you or what?!! Your card is fabulous Michele! I love how you modified the milk can and those orange berries really POP with all the grey! Your 3 Poinsettia cards are gorgeous and I had to chuckle a little bit as I just had this set out yesterday, although it was the sentiments I was using. But anyway, we were somewhat on the same wavelength there! Wonderful post and wonderful cards my friend!! Hugs. :0)
Oh my! That window card is absolutely stunning and such a perfect take on the mood board!!! And 161 cards!!! Wowzers!!! You are amazing!!
I knew that gray wouldn't get by you! This is a wonderful take on Bobby's photo. That's some fabulous vellum and I love that you turned the milk can into a crock. Thanks for sharing this with us at Just Us Girls! Pretty cards for your seniors too. I'm loving the colors on the last one!
Amazing card inspired by the photo Michele. It's so beautiful and you've captured the essence of fall. Lovely poinsettia cards for your Seniors. xx
Oh, your senior cards are sure to bring a smile and warm so many hearts! All so elegant, Michele! And your JUGS entry knocked me off my seat! Yes, the greys have your name all over it. Simply STUNNING!
What a treat to see not one, but four amazing cards today. Each one is gorgeous but the fall card is just a stunner! The scene in the window is perfect with the crock full of bittersweet berries. I do love bittersweet this time of year. Your Christmas cards will certainly bring a smile to some seniors faces. They're all beautiful.
Why did I not know about that vellum? It made a fabulous view through your woodgrain window and your crock of berries look wonderful sitting on the sill. Yay for adding three more delightful cards to your 'Senior' stash. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Just Us Girls.
Oh my goodness, that fall card is absolutely stunning. Wow! And your holiday cards are fabulous. I'm so impressed by the cards you make. Thank you for sharing.
You are amazing...I don't think I will get back in the craft room for a couple years... this PhD has me swamped... but I sure will enjoy your cards!
Wow, you were definitely inspired by Bobby's mood board. Your window and the view is fabulous, as is the crock with the berries. It couldn't get any closer to the mood board. Your Christmas cards are stunning, as always. I know the seniors that receive them will definitely appreciate them. Thanks for sharing.
Fabulous window card Michele. Love the dark wood. The oranges are all so vibrant against it. Your christmas cards are super as well. Love that first one. Its a style I am gonna have to case.
What a stunning set of card Michele! My favourite is definitely the first. I had the same thought when I saw the photo - the window frame is perfect along with the wonderful addtions and gorgeous colours to bring it to life! :) Super inspiration!
Thank you for this awesome inspiration of ways to use this set. I need to get it out again.
I've just done a huge catch up!! I can't believe your blog notifications weren't coming in properly... and I can't open them when they do. I may try unsub and then resubbing to see if that helps. I thopught you must have been cooking... and you have, but it's card recipes lol. Thank you for the inspiration, you are one very talented lady!
All of these cards are gorgeous. I love the JUGS creation - the elements you used are so perfectly put together from the inspiration. Your Christmas cards are fabulous. I love that they all have the same stamp, yet each one so unique.
What I wouldn't do for just a bit of your of your beautiful crative mind!
Fabulousness abounds !!! especially love the first one such rich vibrant colours and that amazing frame. What a talented crafter you are.
Marie
FABULOUS!!
Winner, winner, chicken dinner! With a side of chili oil? Congrats on your JUGS win! It was no surprise to me--simply outstanding in every way!
