MC June Perfume Roses

This week's challenge on Flourishes Timeless Tuesday was a sketch, which is where this card began, then evolved like usual...
I think the last time I used a perfume atomizer with a tassel etc., was in my teens. Now it's just a regular spritz bottle.

I use Quitefire Design rubber stamps for the quote, sentiment and large flourishes. My cricut to cut out the atomizer and the oval shape of the card. Used baby tea roses from over 30 years ago... Yes it's hard for me to throw crafting stuff away - I always know that one day I'll want to use it. PS the box says $4.95 for about 100 roses. You want to take a guess at what they'd be priced at today??

And it fits a WHOLE LOT of challenges. Sheesh
