P.S. speaking of cosmic greeting cards, this would be a nice one to send to a flower lover.

P.S.II - Question: if you view a red rose in a dark closet, is the color of the rose still red?

Is the smell still as sweet?
P.S. III - Did you notice that in the second rosette there is a green elf with a beard and crescent moon hat (in the center-left section), and a dog with big ears wearing sunglasses in the right-hand side of the image? :)
