Tim Holtz SandDollar & SeaHorse Tag

Doodle Pantry Challenge for July is Make a Splash or Christmas Theme. Click here to enter challenge. Click here to see my Partridge in a Pear Tree Scrapbook Layout.

Made this Tag with a Under the Sea/Summer Theme and a lot of work effort using mostly Tim Holtz items. For more details on how the Tag is made on Tim Holtz's site click here. I did change up a few things which I'll note here: 
1. Used a Cuttlebug embossing folder Spots & Dots instead of the TH Bubbles embossing folder.
2. Do not have the clear stuff to make the sand so I used baking soda & my daughter said it needed more white so I also used white glitter along with embossing powder
3. Do not have the TH die to make the SeaWeed so I used a Spellbinder die.
4. Do not have the sentiment tag so I made a sentiment tag of my own.
5. Do not have the paint tool.
6. Added jute to Tag

  10. This is gorgeous, Melissa!! The sea horse looks amazing!! I love that you used what you had to make the tag!! I didn't have the larger sea horse die but on a trip to my local Joann, I found it on clearance for $5.97...I was so excited!! They had two tags, so I took one up to the counter to pay and they couldn't find the die. The manager went to the back and they didn't have any in stock. Sooo frustrated...I thought I had scored a great deal. So I had to make do with the smaller one. Have a great day :)
