Good afternoon!  

Gorgeous Fall day here!  Cool temps, quieter tourists lol

This card uses Gina K Designs stamp sets; 
Perfect Pallets, Rustic Autumn and Something Good In Every Day.

I stamped 4 of the long sized pallets for my background, flipping the stamp so the details would not be all in the same direction.  I then stamped 1 more long pallet and 2 of the smaller sized ones to created the 'gate' portion of my fence and fussy cut them out.  
I backed the 2 smaller ones with Fun Foam to add dimension.





4 Brads.
Fussy cut leaves and flowers.

Cheery Lynn Watering Can die, which I colored with Copic Markers.  
Layered it on card stock and a piece of chip board.

Has a nice bit of dimension to it.

how you can slide something behind the Tag.
