I have a really CAS card for you today, but I think those red hearts really pack a punch! Today’s card is using the new Staggered Heart Border Die-namics for it’s focus. I started with a card base and layer of Sweet Tooth card stock. I cut the hearts from Red Hot card stock and then covered them with Crackle Accents and allowed to dry. Here’s a close up of that:

After it dried, I sponged it with some Kraft ink to bring out the crackles a little more and popped it up on foam. Before I did that, though, I stamped the sentiment, from Heart Balloons, another new set this month, with Steel Gray ink, then added some strips of Scor-Tape and sprinkled them with glitter.

On the inside, there’s another sentiment from Heart Balloons.
