Tearing Things Up with a Vintage Edge and Hot Foil Accents for Mom

Today’s card is all about pattern paper layers, a fun sentiment technique, and hot foiled accents. I’m getting ready for Mother’s Day and using some lovely Unity Stamp Company stamps and vintage papers for my card.

The Card

The Details
Once I saw the Vintage Whispers pattern paper, I knew I had to make something with them. There is a great mix of text and floral patterns with a fantastic vintage vibe. I don’t have a lot of stamping going on today but I wanted that sentiment to be the star. I saw this torn away paper technique and loved the idea of framing my sentiment with it.
Make sure you check out my video below for all the details.

I don’t know if ‘vintage foil’ is a thing, but I’m loving it. I added a hot foiled diamond pattern to my background panel in a neutral pewter color. The butterflies and tiny flowers were hot foiled in rose gold.
Altogether, I love the mix of the shiny foil and the vintage pattern paper. Plus all the little extra bits too.

Bonus Tip: Use up those leftovers to decorate the inside of your card. Everyone is always so delighted when the inside of the card has a little something extra too.
