Download sets of ready to use brushes in Adobe Photoshop, named: Ideal__s_Vector_set_3, Straight_Grunge_Lines_Brushes_by_DieheArt, Vector_Flower_Brushes_by_Yasny_chan.
Create a new layer, applying the brushes out of the set with the name Ideal__s_Vector_set_3. The brushes have black color and #6D0E12. The brushes’ layer should be placed lower than the layers composing the heart and the layers containing the horizontal lines:
