Answer 1

You can look at gradients, background-clip and background-size:
example possible http://codepen.io/gc-nomade/pen/aZbrEQ
div {
margin: 1em auto;
width: 600px;
max-width: 70%;
padding: 40px;
/* set offset here for border corners */
background: linear-gradient(white, white) top left no-repeat, linear-gradient(white, white) top left no-repeat, linear-gradient(white, white) top right no-repeat, linear-gradient(white, white) top right no-repeat, linear-gradient(white, white) bottom left no-repeat, linear-gradient(white, white) bottom left no-repeat, linear-gradient(white, white) bottom right no-repeat, linear-gradient(white, white) bottom right no-repeat, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.15);
/* color receive
background-clip:content-box;
so it is not drawn on padding areas */
background-clip: border-box, border-box, border-box, border-box, border-box, border-box, border-box, border-box, content-box;
background-size: 2px 60px, 80px 2px;
/* here give length and thickness of border corners */
color: white;
}
p,
h2 {
padding: 1em;
margin:0;
}
html {
height: 100%;
background: url(http://lorempixel.com/640/480/nature/6);
background-size: cover
}
body {
min-height: 100%;
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
margin: 0;
padding: 4em;
}
<div>
<h2>title</h2>

Just to prove how simple your question is.
::before and ::after hides parts of the border.
z-index for overlay.
.dirt {
position: relative;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
line-height: 100px;
text-align: center;
background-color: rgba(251, 145, 156, 1);
border: 2px solid rgba(231, 0, 0, 1);
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.dirt > span {
position: relative;
z-index: 15;
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.5);
padding: 25px;
}
.dirt::after,
.dirt::before {
content: '';
position: absolute;
background-color: rgba(251, 145, 156, 1);
/*same color*/
}
.dirt::before {
top: 20%;
bottom: 20%;
left: -2px;
/*border-width*/
right: -2px;
/*border-width*/
}
.dirt::after {
top: -2px;
/*border-width*/
bottom: -2px;
/*border-width*/
left: 20%;
right: 20%;
}
<p>An example: (do not use)</p>
<div class="dirt">
<span>My little dirt text</span>
</div>
