Rose "gifts"

I would love to press roses, what a great idea. 

Susan and I have sent delightful pieces (mostly blooms) of our
gardens to each other threw the snail mail. It is most fun, they
don't all hold their shapes, but they do hold their fragrance. We
usually lay them between tissues, write the names on the tissues or
paper towels and just "sandwich" them into a bubble envelope. Just
love getting these "little gifts" in the mail. 

My garden is nearly gone of roses right now, or I would send ya some.
