Let's start!
Open a new canvas, size 650x650.
Place Frame3 on the canvas. Resize and add a drop shadow. 
Place paper10 behind the frame and resize. Erase anything outside the frame.
Place a copy of the fence behind the frame. Resize and duplicate so it covers the backside. Add a drop shadow.
Place a CornStalkBunch behind the fence and frame on the right side. Resize and add a drop shadow. 
Duplicate the bunch and place it on the left side.
Take the chicken wire and place it on the lower right side behind the frame. Resize the wire so just a little peeks out. Add a drop shadow.
Duplicate the wire and move it to the left side so a little peeks out there too. 
Take a full size copy of the wire and place it so it's between the fence and frame at the bottom. Resize and add a drop shadow. 
Take another copy of the wire and place it toward the top of the frame so just a little sticks out behind it.
Resize and add a drop shadow. 
Take Tree3 and place it behind the frame on the right side. Have a little stick out the top and to the side. Resize and add a drop shadow. 
Duplicate the tree and flip horizontally. Place it on the left side. Only have this one stick out the top. Duplicate the tree again and have a little stick out the side of the frame. Resize and add a drop shadow. 
Now take another copy of the tree and flip 90° CW so the long flat side is behind everything. It should cover the empty space behind the chicken wire and between the cornstalk bunches.
Below everything, place a grass patch. Duplicate the grass until it covers the front of the tag. Rotate as needed.
Take a close up of the tube and place it on the paper behind the frame. Make one larger close up and one smaller close up. Change both to Luminosity and drop fill to 15%. Duplicate the paper behind the frame and move it on top of the tubes and change it to SoftLight.
