Autumn Leaf and Pinecone Tag

Created this Autumn Leaf & Pinecone Tag using Tim Holtz dies.

Had the Tattered Pinecone die for some time & first time using it. There are pictures with steps on how to make the Pinecone but I could not figure it out. Could not get the video on Tim Holtz's blog to play when we made this but have watched it since. Hubby figured it out. Yes, we used a toothpick to wrap it snug.
