A Darling Donkey Valentine


I hope there’s room for more Darling Donkeys in your heart. I’ve been working on Valentines, and what says I love you any better than a donkey with a rose in his teeth?

  • Stamps: Darling Donkeys, A Wish for Everything
  • Color Palette: Basic White, Memento Black, Rich Razzleberry, Smokey Slate, Petal Pink, Shaded Spruce
  • Accessories: Ombré Designer Series paper (Sale-a-bration 2021.1), Big Boss, Messages die, Heart dies (retired, but there are current ones), Stampin’ Blends, Paper Snips, Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals, Clear Epoxy Droplets, Well Suited Twine Combo pack

The technique is really simple. I used a heart shaped die placed overlapping the edge of the top panel on the card. The DSP just needs to be big enough to cover the opening, and once they’re secured I added a mat and adhered it to the card front. My donkey is fussy cut with snips and set up on mini-dimensionals, and I unraveled the grey twine to make it softer and less bulky.

I stamped off “happy” for a tonal effect to coordinate with that fabulous Ombré paper. Let’s not talk about how many orders I’ve placed to be sure I have enough of that paper now, can we agree on that?

If you really need that Ombré paper like I need that Ombré paper, pop over to the Online Store and make an order of at least $50 and then choose that paper as your free gift! Ombré?? and Free?? in the same sentence? Must be my lucky day.
