I kept my design very CAS to make the Bloomin' Heart Thinlits Dies the star of the card. I have die cut several hearts now and did find using the foil paper was the hardest to get out all the pieces. Next time I will use a thicker shim. But have to admit the extra time was well worth the beautiful results. I took a photo with the card laying down so you could see the gorgeous shine.
My only embellishments were small silver brads and a sentiment from the matching Bloomin' Love stamp set.
STAMPlorations new CAS January CAS Challenge. Anything CAS Goes with optional twist: Silver. I used silver brads! So excited to see STAMPlorations now has a CAS Challenge each month :-)
Enjoy and Happy Stamping my friends. Hugs, Nancy

Absolutely the stunning star of the show, Nancy. That die is gorgeous done up in the red foil and needs no other detail to detract from it beautifully done.

This is GORGEOUS, Nancy! LOVE that metallic heart and also love the you accessorized it minimally, allowing that foil to take center stage! What a gorgeous die cut!
