(In reply to Pencil and paper solution. by Charlie)

There are bold horizontal lines in the diagram to delineate the dominoes in the previous post, but they don't look bold.

So:

            +---+---+       +---+---+
            | 0  0 |       | 2  2 |
            +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
            | 0 | 0  4 | 4  2 | 2  6 | 6 |
            + +---+---+---+---+---+---+ +
            | 5 | 5  4 | 4  1 | 1  6 | 6 |
            +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
            | 5 | 5  3 | 3  1 | 1  5 | 5 |
            + +---+---+---+---+---+---+ +
            | 2 | 2  3 | 3  6 | 6  5 | 5 |
            +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
            | 2 | 2  0 | 0  6 | 6  4 | 4 |
            + +---+---+---+---+---+---+ +
            | 1 | 1  0 | 0  3 | 3  4 | 4 |
            +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
            | 1  1       | 3  3 |
            +---+---+       +---+---+
