It makes a really cute card though! I picked up this Arbor die by Rubbernecker at the Scrapbook Expo and knew it would go perfectly with this stamp from Quietfire Design. I sponged the sky and added the arbor - die-cutting the gate a couple of extra times to be used as the fence.
I layered up some grass dies by Impression Obsession and added tiny flowers (the stamens the Bougainvillea die by Elizabeth Craft Designs). By arranging the flowers in a different patterns in different colors, I got the look of different flowers even though they are the same die.
Another find from the Expo were these two dogs from Art Impressions Dog House Cubbies. I think that hound is actually laying down but I made him jumping with joy to go with the sentiment stamped about the garden scene.
I did not glue the gate down but used the latches as a hinge for the gate so it would open and close. (My kids say it looks like the gate is closing on the door but I say he's busting out. In-house critics are the worst!)
