Mojo Monday 178

Good afternoon!  My new Monday morning fun is to play along with the Mojo Monday challenge.  Here is the sketch,,.


This is what I came up with...
I used all current Stampin' Up products.  I really liked how it turned out as I am fairly new and my creativity is not so great even with a layout in front of me. 

The stamp set is Sense of Time, I have been eyeballing it for awhile and finally got it with my Sale-A-Bration order to qualify me for free stamps sets.   I stamped the clock face in Early Espresso on Crumb Cake card stock and matted that onto Bravo Burgundy cardstock.  I stamped the gears in Soft Suede onto Very Vanilla cardstock and then sponged the entire Very Vanilla piece with Crumb Cake.  I colored the sentiment with markers: Early Espresso and Bravo Burgundy and stamped that on Very Vanilla cardstock matted onto Bravo Burgundy.  I put vintage brads in the corners, made a "ribbon" out of Bravo Burgundy cardstock and tied a little hemp twine ribbon at the bottom of that.  Oh, I almost forgot.  I wanted a distressed look so I took a razor (don't try this at home) and scraped it along the edges of the Very Vanilla cardstock, made a couple of little tears (I didn't want to over do my first attempt) and there you go!  I will be ordering a distressing kit today so I can play a little more and safely!

I hope you enjoyed the card and a Happy Valentine's Day to you!!!
