House of Cards: Photo Inspiration

Hello!  I hope you've had a wonderful weekend! :)  It's time for a NEW challenge at House of Cards--this time, we've got a ONE WEEK challenge where we'd like you to be inspired by...

This photo~
Pretty, country, chic. Love it.

Here's my take~

Details~


I've used patterned paper by Basic Grey, a button and twine from my stash, Stickles by Ranger in Diamond, Memento ink in Tuxedo Black, enamel dots by My Minds Eye, and all other supplies are by Stampin' Up!.

I decided against placing a sentiment so that this card could be used for any occasion.  I LOVE hydrangeas, and so this was a good chance for me to get out this image--it's rarely used, which is a shame!  It looks so lovely paper pieced like this, don't you think?  Hopefully you can see I was inspired by the flowers, colors, and patterns of the photo! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you take some time to create something today--and if you're inspired by the photo, to link it up with us at House of Cards!  Please leave some love with the other amazing DT gals, too--they're creations are gorgeous!  HUGS and happy stamping to you all!
