Hey Mike, A couple thoughts - 1) You can't stack a background image over top an image that sits on the HTML. The jpg in your HTML will always take precedence regardless of stacking order. (I think). And 2), are you sure you want the thistle image to sit over top the sea coast image anyway because the thistle image has the blue background, it wouldn't be just the thistles that overlap. And finally 3), one option may be to edit the overlap into your header1.jpg and then visually connect that with the background image by positioning?.
