WWC86 - Gail's Simply Stamping Challenge

This week Gail gave us a Simply Stamping Challenge with a Fall theme. 
Remember that the rules for this challenge are:
"Simply Stamping" is a return to basics. We expect either one single stamped layer or a base with one single layer on that. We expect simple stamping. You can use masking, heat embossing, stencilling, sponging. You cannot use an embossing folder or embellishments or additional layers (not even a tag).
I combined 4 stamp sets for my card, Wetlands, Jar of Haunts, Perpetual Birthday Calendar and Flourishing Phrases.
