It’s Thursday again and time for another Create with Connie and Mary challenge! This week is a fun sketch challenge! We hope you play along!

I grabbed my free Sale-a-Bration stamp set, Darling Donkeys to use for the first time! This really is a CUTE set!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Crumb Cake, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 3-1/2 x 4-3/4 piece of Bermuda Bay Oh So Ombre (another FREE Sale-A-Bration selection) is added to the front.
- A coordinating 2-1/2 x 3-3/4 piece of the Old Olive Oh So Ombre DSP was added on top.
- The 1/2 x 5-1/4 strip of Bermuda Bay was added on top.
- The donkey from Darling Donkeys Stamp Set was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Basic White and cut with the Stitched Shapes Circle. He was colored with Gray Granite Combo and Light Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Blends. The circle was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals, the bottom under the Bermuda Bay strip.
- Hee Haw from Darling Donkeys was stamped with Memento Black Ink on 1/2 x 1-3/4 Basic White cardstock, the end cut at an angle, then adhered to the front.
- A trio of Adhesive Sequins were added to the background.
