This is why I love computer graphics. (I can’t do this in the “real” world.)
Like magic, I transformed my design from yesterday into the most beautiful shades of color.
(I figured you were probably getting tired of “pink”.)
I have not had the time to get source codes together yet for the gadgetry.
But feel free to use these in your “Blog Worlds” if you don’t need the source codes.
I will be posting the source codes soon.
Let me know what your favorite color is below…mine is the second one.
Have an awesome Friday and remember to be kind to yourself!

Lavender Rose
A natural bowl filled with some of my favorite things.
I brought this mini goatmilk soap back from the lavender farm on Maui.
This soap is “Lavender Rose” and was handmade on the farm by combining the fragrant essential oil of rose with lavender and goatmilk.
A pink French stamp is from my collection.
I saw the shape of a heart in this petal.
My favorite pink sea urchin with a touch of sparkle.
I hope you are having a lovely week. Thanks for stopping by and catching some Rose Petals from Heaven.

Beautiful Keepsakes
A floral ring made of shells shows off one of my favorite colors; orchid.
It is embellished in gold and strewn with flowers and garlands. I especially adore the little angel. It is unmarked so I really cannot pin point it’s age.
The picture above shows the unusual shape of this precious dish.
This vintage French Holy card shows a beautiful autumn view of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes and when translated it says, “Go tell the priests to build a chapel here and we will come in procession.”
Another old Holy card of St. Therese of the Child-Jesus. It was also made in France. I adore how the angels and the roses surround her and she is one of the reasons I have named my blog “Rose Petals from Heaven”.
One of her famous quotes is, "My way is all confidence and love”.
My jewelry box key added a nice touch to this photo session.
My translation is:
The Lord forgives relentlessly,
For small, the humble of heart;
In the sheath (or covering) of His gentleness.
This vintage card has real flower petals on it and is translated to “Flowers of the Holy Land”. A very simple card with a beautiful message.

A Peek At Some Treasures In My Master Bedroom
Here are some pictures I took of a few of the treasures displayed in my master bedroom.
A silver sugar bowl adds a touch of shine.
Blue and white accents dominate my master bedroom.
The decanter has a wonderful shape and is covered with a floral design.
A sachet of “Fleurs Bleues” Made in France.
This is a little planter made by my son when he was five. It was my Mother’s Day gift from him. I treasure it.
Seashells add a natural and refreshing touch to my room.
Another vintage sugar bowl.
This blue and white bowl has handles accented in gold.
A closer look of the pattern glass on my vintage decanter.

My New...Old Camera
I am returning to my antique digital Kodak camera....for some reason my Canon Powershot doesn’t take clear pictures. Which is a bummer.
Saying that, this is my blog for Sunday. We are taking an all day trip out of town tomorrow to blaze the trails of Arizona in our new Jeep. Happy Fourth of July to all of you sweet petals from heaven.
(These pictures were taken with my Kodak. I think they look much better.)
This little group of treasures begins with a gift tag given to me by a dear friend. She also has the ‘French Touch’.
This beautiful pink sea urchin is from Hawaii. It’s hard to believe it is made by nature. It resembles very fine porcelain and it's just as fragile.
Now for my favorite of this group. These vintage earrings are made out of pink seashells. And are a one-of-a-kind pair. The intricate detail and placement of the petals is amazing.
The dried rose petals are mine. They were once in bloom in the rose garden my husband planted for me for my birthday years ago as a surprise present. He’s a keeper. We have been married for over 20 years!

Wonderful World
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom, for me and you.
And I think to myself... "What a wonderful world."
