Donkey Basketball

Every year, my husband participates in what's known as "Donkey Basketball". Donkey Basketball is just a variation on the standard game of basketball, played on a standard basketball court, but the players ride donkeys the entire time. It's hilarious to watch (and sometimes quite frightful as the donkeys can get rather feisty), and it's for a good cause (donations go to different charities every year).
Because my husband participates in Donkey Basketball every year - I have a ton of photos. This is my particular favorite one of him (right before the game) so naturally I chose to make a layout. Almost all the papers in this layout are from Amy Tangerine's "Ready Set Go" collection. The few papers that are not from her collection are the cloud paper (Little Yellow Bicycle) and star paper (Bella Blvd).
How cute is that little paper donkey? I cut him out using my Silhouette Cameo. The alphas that spell out "donkey" are also by Bella Blvd. I was all out of the letter "o" so I used the negative instead. I love how it looks! The word "B-BALL" is made up of those DIY Fabric Thickers that I've been using a lot lately. The twine is from Doodlebug. The kraft envelope bit is from Maya Road.

Thank you for reading. Happy Friday! I hope everyone enjoys their weekend.
