I used the Stampin’ Up! Darling Donkey stamp set to create my project for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop.  We’ve got a fun fold challenge this week and this is what I made for it.

Here is our challenge this week:

My card also works for Tic Tac Toe TTTC101.  I went down the left side.

I started by scoring the 4-1/4″ x 8-1/4″ panel of Coastal Cabana card stock at 5-1/2″.  Then I adhered panels of In Good Taste DSP to panels of Early Espresso card stock with Stampin’ Seal.  I adhered one panel the left side of the card front and one panel to the inside of the card base.

I stamped the donkey image from the Darling Donkeys stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then colored it with Light and Dark Crumb Cake and Petal Pink inks.  I cut the image out with one of the Stitched Shapes Dies and then adhered it with Stampin’ Seal to a scalloped square cut from Coastal Cabana card stock with one of the Layering Squares Dies.

I looped and tied a length of Linen Thread and adhered it with a Glue Dot to the Basic White card stock panel.  Then I stamped the sentiment from the Darling Donkeys stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Coastal Cabana card stock.  I sprinkled the sentiment with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and then heat embossed it.  I cut the sentiment out with one of the Tasteful Labels Dies and then adhered it with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the Basic White card stock panel.

I cut a 3″ x 6″ panel of Early Espresso card stock and then scored it at 3″ to create a 3″ x 3″ card base.  I adhered the layered scalloped square panel to the front of the card with Stampin’ Seal, then adhered the card base to the “inside” panel with Stampin’ Seal.  I stamped the sentiment and donkey images from the Darling Donkeys stamp set in Coastal Cabana and Crumb Cake inks on a panel of Basic White card stock and cut around them with a Stitched Shapes Square.  I adhered the die cut square with Stampin’ Seal to finish the inside of the card.
