  5. Another clever creation! Love how your stamped blocks match the ones you created, gives the card a nice balance! Placing your focal panel in that manner gives it lots of interest too, love the wonky look of it. And thanks a melon, you're making me hungry! :) Thanks so much for playing along with us again at The Mod Squad Challenge Donna, Challenge Host.
