Mojo 378 Revisited

I absolutely loved the sketch from Mojo last week.  In fact, I had to use it again on this card.  The black striped banner is a piece of washi tape over cardstock and cut into a banner.  Then I took some Recollections dark Red cardstock and stamped a Technique Tuesday border on it with Staz On Black and made that into a banner.

On top of that I took Recollections white cardstock and painted over it with Ranger Adirondak's Cranberry ink, then stamped over it with a script stamp by Inkadinkado in Gathered Twigs Distress Ink.   I also used the Gathered Twigs to distress the outside of the area.  After misting with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist I also rubbed more of the cranberry ink on with some felt.  I then used a circle punch to punch out a semicircle from each end.  Finally, I added some twine on that layer.

The next layer I cut out a heart using my Cricut on some We R Memory Keepers Paper For the Record.  I left out the biggest heart so my glitter paper could show through.

I decided to leave out the sentiment this time.  I love this sketch and I can see many more "versions" of this.  This will be a sketch I come to again and often.  I hope you got a chance to try it out yourself.

I am also entering this in Color Throwdown 324.
