House of Cards blog hop *Inspired By Stamping*

Happy Sunday friends. I don't normally post on a Sunday but today the entire Inspired By Stamping design team is joining the House of Cards team for an inspirational blog hop. 

Welcome to the House of Cards Term One Blog Hop!  If you've come here from Colleen's blog, then you are in the right place!  If you have just stumbled here and would like to participate, please hop over to the House of Cards challenge blog to get started!  We've got some fabulous sponsors that are providing prizes, so make sure to leave comments at each stop for a chance to win!

For this special hop, everyone was asked to use the image below for an inspiration for our project...

and here's my take on it...

I kept my cards' colors to white with some subtle hints of blue and other red. I added some texture by embossing my vellum strip (in the middle of the card) and adding some rhinestone corners. I used a birthday stamp and flower from the IBS store. 

Here's the full list of hoppers today...
