Marlena, that is so great how you used the sunshine panels. Love the background. And the crease looks like you planned it.

I love the effect you've achieved here, it looks like a wonderful chalk drawing. I'm with you on the crease, I would have saved it too! Thanks for joining us for this week's Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge!
