Pink pedals

Every year my Peonies bloom and usually pick them into beautiful bouquets.  This year after they lost their beautiful pedals I'm drying them to use in my paper making that I have plans to do this summer.  They make a great additive and these petals will turn a deep pink.  Can't wait to play in the water on a hot day.  I'm thinking of adding them to a linen or cotton base.  Will have to see what my day of paper making brings.  By suggestion of a friend my plans are to make some wall art with the paper...hopefully my backyard will be lined in white paper and peonies pedals floating through it.
