A Little More Mojo

Hi all! As promised, here is the second card I made using Mojo Monday inspiration and the Chalk It Up Picture My Life cards.

Here is the sketch again:

And here is my card:

To change it up a little, I cut the base of this card so that it would open vertically. The base is Kraft Cardstock. For the first layer, I pieced 2 of the Picture My Life cards together, and covered the seam with a little Black Striped Twill Ribbon. I then cut the tag from a 4x6 card, punched a hole at the top and added some Slate Diagonal Striped Ribbon and a little Bakers Twine. The "Awesome" sentiment was cut from a 3x4 card. I edged all the layers with Black Exlusive Ink to make them pop just a little. I then adhered them all using thin foam tape. (This is my new go-to for dimensional adhesive. Love it!) I added 3 Black Epoxy Bubbles for a little bling, and voilĂ : another sweet back-to-school note of encouragement! (And this card required no stamping at all!)

Here are a couple of close-ups:

And one more look at the card:

Hope you enjoyed it! Have a fabulous weekend!
