Divine Diva Inspiration #6 Kind Words

Happy Thursday everybody! Surprise, Surprise it is raining here yet again today. We had 10+inches last week. Showers and rain on Sunday night and Monday and then again last night totalling another 3 inches. Unfortunately there is nowhere for the rain to go. Our lawn is starting to look like a pond more than a lawn. There is lots of flooding. The scary thing is....they are predicting rain until next Tuesday yet. I am praying it atleast stops for our girls family birthday party when I have 30+ people coming for the weekend on June 27th. With the way the trend is...my chances are not looking so good. Poor Scott built an extension on to the girls wooden swingset so they and their guests would have more to play on and they may not even get to play on it. Is anyone else being flooded out?

Anywho... I was so glad to see the inspiration that Lori sent to the dt this week had lots of flowers. Since I am not seeing many in real life, it is fun creating them! When I first saw the vase with peonies in the front of the picture, I wanted to work with that but then white on white is very tough using the Pretty Peony set that I have to work with so I instead used red inspired by the fireplace flowers. I added white and black which were inspired by the colors and texture in that room.

The peonies were stamped in pink piroette, riding hood red and kiwi kiss on very vanilla cardstock. The sentiment was stamped on vellum and adhered over the peony panel. The flourishes are from a Spellbinders die. I used ribbon scraps for my ribbon treatment on the corners. The vellum panel was paper pierced. I used the CAS19 sketch for my layout.
