Divine Diva Inspiration Challenge- 11

This week Lori sent the team this image from Green Grass Design as our inspiration for our creation:

I was inspired by the 2nd button in the third column. I used Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red and SU Fifth Avenue Floral for my creation.

This was a very fun inspiration this week!! We hope you can join this challenge this week. If you do, please link your creation here. If you upload to PCP or SC, please use the keyword DDIC11.
