Darling Donkeys

Maybe its the farm girl in me, but I just love these donkeys! They are playful and fun, and sure to bring  smile to anyone who receives a card with a Darling Donkey on it! This card was so easy to make, just make a reg sized card, 8 1/2 x 11 scored at 5 1/2 . Then I just cut it half way down on the fold... and cut across.. to get the "barn door" effect... used the piece that I cut off to mat behind my Donkey piece! I used all 3 donkeys on this card! 

Because I put in an order of 50.00 with Stampin up! I was able to get this stamp set free, and another order of 50.00, I got the pretty dsp ( designer series paper) free too! I love Free , don't you??

These cards would be fun to get anytime of the year, not just at Valentines Day! They are so simple and easy to make. I made these before I had my foil seen here  . I think once I use them the hearts will pop even more... Oh I forgot to add one supply... its on page 11 of the January to June catalog,  Its called Love You Always Specialty dsp , isn't it pretty? so shinny and bright! I love the way these colors ( and I am NOT a Sahara sand fan) co ordinate so nicely ! Who woulda thought ??  If you need a catalog to drool over in person, and do not have a Stampin Up demo, I would be happy to pop one in the mail to you! Just let me know!
