This is a tag I added to a box of Snicker-doodles for a precious friend who retired today and is headed for the coast for week! How delish is that!
Image is from a retired set from SU. I will always treasure this set, it speaks peace to me. I used black Stazon and let the SU ink pads do the rest. The shells are from Michael's (because the ones I find are never as pretty!)
Thanks for looking!

What an awesome tag for that box of love you sent off with Margaret for her first week of retirement! The floral oval makes a wonderful BG for that sweet stamp, that is the picture relaxation! Bless your heart for thinking of so many wonderful things for her! Lymi

Oh Pat.......... I also have that stamp set and it's companion set. Would NEVER part with them. I adore what you did with the shells. I'm sure your friend was thrilled!

So pretty! Such a peaceful scene. I was so wishing I could have been to a beach...or even near water, pool, anything this past summer...but so far, it hasn't happened...so with your card...I can at least dream about it.

Girlfriend I think I was in a doodle daze when you posted this - there is no other explanation for missing it until now. What a perfect tag for this gift. That is a a bulbous image, I can almost feel the water washing over my toes as I look at it. The tag is as much a gift as the doodles. Hugs c

I hear snicker-doodles travel well. hint hint JK.....What a cool tag. I love the design. That image is magnificent especially the way your colored it. LOVE all those sea shells. BN, you done good. (took me awhile to figure out what BN actually stood for. hehe I am crazy horrible with those things, not sure what you call them.) Love your tag! TFS :0)
