Stop and smell the roses

Flowers often feature on cards, so they are the main focus of this card. Today on 365 cards (day 63) the challenge is 'floral fest' - to use eight flowers on a card (there are actually more than eight, but I don't think anyone will mind - there are at least eight!).

I used a much-loved stamp, coloured in with copics, just adding the sentiments (K & Co).

I'm linking this for Sunday stamper, where this week's theme (week 57) is 'time after time' - I hope Hels will accept my loose interpretation of this, in the phrase 'God did not create hurry' and (take time to) stop and smell the roses.

This week's Alphabet Challenge is 'f for .... so, flowers, seems appropriate.

And challenge 30 on Secret Crafter Saturday challenge is 'flowers'.

  2. That's a lovely stamp Hazel and I think everyone should take heed from the words 'stop and smell the roses'. Life is so fast these days we often don't have time to appreciate the little things.

    Great to see you have had a chance to craft again and hope your husband is on the mend xxx

  6. Such a pretty card! I always used to tell my kids when they were younger to stop and smell the roses. They hated it....hehehe!! I guess because that meant they had to stay in the house and rest for awhile!

    hugs, Karen Lee
