Portland Oregon - The City of Roses
Just a few weeks ago we stopped at the 
Portland Rose Garden.

I must share with you that I have
 never seen the garden so beautiful. 
Every Rose bush was blooming!


Simply...breath taking!

In the beginning of June the city of
Portland celebrates the Rose Festival.

This year's rose selection for the
2014 Official Rose was

Royal Scepter
A beautiful white rose!


Instead of coloring I choose to heat emboss the white rose.



Simply...Crafted!


Love this stamp from Paper Source!

The Rose Festival floats are constructed
from many different flowers and botanicals.



This little dog reminded me of our dog I grew up with
Kiltie! A very special West Highlander!




Loved the use of orange peels.



 Big Chocolate Teddy Bear holds one Red Rose!
Perhaps representing my number one choice...

Roses!

Be Spontaneous!
