Lattice fence card



basecard thick white cardstock 8/1/2 x 5 1/2 folded in half to create A2 card ( 4 1/4x 5 1/2) 
Cut off 2 3/8 inch from the front panel ( if you are using a colored cardstock then get a 2 3/8 x 4 1/4 inch white cardstock piece for the picket fence ). 
emboss with timber embossing folder and cut 1/2 inch from the bottom and then every 3/8 inch increments for the lattice. 
put a piece of DSP 4 1/4x 3 inches  in the inside behind the lattice. (here we are using bold brights DSP)
put the 1/2 strip on the bottom to match the inside panel then the 3/8 inch pieces to create a lattice
save 2 to make the vertical posts- cut a upside V on the top of the post to make a fence post.
decorate the fence with die cuts from Thoughtful wishes set 
color in with your flower color choice 
stamp sentiment on the right-side top of the lattice or on the inside.
