Stop and Smell the Roses

Sometimes life gets busy . . . real busy, and we don’t know if we are coming or going.

It’s at times like these that it’s good to take a minute, take a breather and enjoy the pleasures in life and the things we are grateful for.

If you are feeling a bit stressed, over worked or overwhelmed here’s a gentle reminder to, “Stop and Smell the Roses” – a saying my best friend Amy and I often use.

Download  and print our poster, pop it into a frame and place it in a space that you’ll see it often. Sized to fit a frame of 10cmx15cm or 13cmx18cm.

OR Download our Digital Wallpaper and load it as your desktop screensaver.

Enjoy all the moments in life, be present and remember that the journey is as important as the final goal – (a little advice I know I could personally take).

Thank you Blackframe Photography for the gorgeous pics. Grab a cup of tea, sit down, relax and scroll the beautiful photographs on their blog.

Have a happy day smelling life’s roses!

Love Sam

Some Bunny Loves You : Easter Printable

Tomorrow is Easter Friday and a reminder to us of pure love. 

It is also the perfect time to take a minute to let your kids, family and friends know that you cherish and love them. 

Simply download our "some bunny loves you" free printable, trim along the crop lines, fold and write your special words inside. Pop into a C6 envelope or bitty bag and attach to a box of Easter Eggs or a chocolate bunny. You can even bake these scrumptious Hot Cross Buns and give one of our cards alongside a homemade treat. 

These cards are available in mint, pink, grey and purple.

A very big thank you to Andre and Maritsa from Blackframe Photography for once again working with us to capture all the photographs in this post and for editing them so beautifully. Please hop on over to their blog to see more of their fabulous photography.

Happy Family Time & Easter Egg Hunting,
