Stop and Smell the Flowers

This is my own creation, any similarities to other tutorials is purely coincidental and unintentional.

This is what we will be making...




Although this is a simple tag, the quote that I used is very improtant to me.
My cousin died at the age of 38, he was a very special person in my life.
During his last days alive he told me
"always make sure you take time to stop and smell the flowers".
