To start this card I picked out the paper I wanted to use for the background from the Lovely Hearts Paper Pad. I cut it out using the Fractured Card Layout Die and used the same die to cut out the red frame.  

Next, I stamped this super cute image from the Oink Stamp Set, colored it with copic markers, and cut it out using the coordinating die set.

I die cut a piece of white cardstock using the "XOXO" banner from the Valentine Word Trio Die Set.  I then used the same die to cut a piece of pink glitter cardstock from the Cheerful Brights Glitter Cardstock Assortment to create the sparkling "XOXO" sentiment.

I assembled my card using red cardstock for the base and popped up the image with foam tape for some dimension!
