I stopped at a local gas station the other day
and just happened to notice these red roses growing next to their service door.
Wow! Beauty can be found in the most unexpected places.

PicMonkey recently added a few more photo framing options to their site.
(Thanks, Claudia, for letting me know!)

These scallops create a look similar to the postage stamp I used before.
Wouldn't you agree?
I still have to go to FotoFlexer to get the font I want, though.

These are beautiful - I love the vibrant bright colour. Your new frames work very well with the photos!
Wow! Those are pretty.
You never know where you will find beauty.
Stop by Sunday's post--I am celebrating.

That would be pretty....instead of just an old greasy, smelly gas station.
They are so pretty! I love how you framed them. I have no idea on how to do anything like that on my blog!
Did you bring some home to enjoy?!

Yep, it's always fun to find something that makes you smile:@)
Gorgeous blooms and gorgeous rich color.
Oh, you framed this so beautifully! Such gorgeous roses...and, of all places to find them happily blooming away!
Life is so full of wonderful surprises, my friend!
Blessings and thanks for sharing!

You know the mature roses that I have had more than a year are prolific this year. The rabbits have eaten all the newly planted ones. Just filled up the other day and I didn't see anything quite this nice! Your frames are darling...smiles..Renee
You are right, those are just gorgeous!
Wow, such gorgeous roses! Always love finding little prettiness where we least expect it! xo Heather
Beautiful!
Those are lovely...
You have a bright eye to notice beauty in an unexpected place and a kind heart to share it with us! xo Karen
Those roses are stunning, such a vibrate colour to them!
I like the new scallop frames...it goes really well with the rose pictures.
Have a lovely day today :)

Beautiful touches can be found in the most un-expected places. I find myself looking a bit harder to find the beauty :)
Thanks for sharing!!

STUNNING!! Years ago a local bank had a hedge of the most gorgeous lilacs that was at the back of their parking lot. I always loved seeing them in the spring on my banking runs -- the bank changed hands and the new ownership took the hedge out and now there is just a cider-block wall to look at. Such a shame.
Blessings!

Wow-beautiful roses! You've got to keep your eyes open to find it sometimes.
What a beautiful colour they must have really brightened your day.
Beautiful roses...and I like the frames you chose for the photos!
Wow, what a great capture. So bright and vibrant. Good thing you had your camera handy. Yeah, you wouldn't think of such beauty at a gas station.
So beautiful!
I love that, when I see something amazing in an odd location. Especially when of the sweet smelling flower variety.
The color is stunning, great photo!

What gorgeous roses. Were they fragrant?
I love that sweet frame you built around the lovely picture, too.
Knock-out roses!
Thank you so much for visiting me and leaving a sweet comment on my blog.
The roses are beautiful, and the colours are stunnig.
Yes, the roses are stunning AND you have set them off beautifully with your brilliant coloured frames.

I just love roses, anywhere they pop up. How fun. Don't you just love the roses that grow and grow without having to fuss over them and then be disappointed?
Happy summer.
