Peppermint Roses


As promised- Peppermint Roses!  I've mentioned in the past how much my husbands family adores peppermint ice cream.  Until I met him I had no idea that flavor existed- I'm a cookie dough and sherbert gal myself- when I'm not eating my Ahboo's favorite concoction of half an old fashioned doughnut toasted and topped with coffee ice cream and maple syrup.  Come to think of it, I should assemble that a load to my Pinterest Yum board!!! But I digress...
Fritz, my faithful glove reindeer, is playing Vanna for this post.  His story can be found here. :)
The kraft tags are embellished with roses and buttons from this kit.  The ornament stamp is from PTI  Ooo, can't you see these on a package with a beautiful red ribbon!!!
The tags are edged with red ink and the roses are edged with silver Stickles.  Basically I stick globs of it on my finger and "paint" the edges.  Reminds me of the fun of finger painting- with the results I really wanted as a kid. :P
The splatter distressing was created using some SU stamps I got from one of the school secretaries at my school.  I am ashamed to say I haven't made her any goodies to thank her yet.  Maybe I should make her a set of tags?  What do y'all think?
The scallops and snowflake used dies from MFT and the other embellies came from this Paper Bakery kit.  The same one I used to make this.

Fritz and I are chillin' with these tags here:

  1. Fitz is just the cutest thing! Gloves...who would have thought! Your tags are awesome! The trims and embellishments are perfect with your gorgeous flowers!
    As far as the 'thank you' project, I think either the tags or some blank note cards would be a wonderful way to show your appreciation!
