I'd break it up into two sentences, if I were you; and I wouldn't use the idiom "Stop to smell the flowers" because it wouldn't make sense in French.

Like with "It's raining cats and dogs!" To the French "il pluie des cordes"!

Just a simple "Joyeux anniversaire !" would be better.

Bonne Chance!

Well stopp and smell the flowers doesn't really make sense as an expression in french so i would just stick with a simple
(joyeux anniverssaire) (bonne fete) with an accent on the e if you must say stopp and smell the flowers Arret at sentir les fleurs , Bonne fete Joe
or Joyeux anniverssaire joe

The other answers seem to be from online translators and are direct translations. I think this is closer to what you're trying to say:

Arrête, sent les fleurs et passe une merveilleuse journée de fête. Sincèrement, Joe.

You, sir, are a true romantic.

"Arrêtez, sentez les fleurs et avez un anniversaire magnifique.
le vôtre : Joe"

She'll be thrilled and touched by your sensitivity and class. All the best....
