Vintage Retirement card

Hello and happy Thursday! I want to share a retirement card that I created a few weeks back with you today.

I used plenty of older product for this card. It´s bigger in size – 14×21 cm´s – and is kept in vintage style to match the recipients age. On the background I used a Stampin´ Up! background woodgrain stamp and Hero Arts inks. On top of that I added some border stickers and Wycinanka chipboards. The tags were inked with Distress Ink (old paper) and the script stamp images are stamped with various grey tones (Hero Arts).

On top of the tags I have a few buttons and a Tim Holtz paper doll as added decor. The banner sentiment is stamped with another Stampin´ Up! stamp.

I really liked creating this vintage-style card. It´s plenty of layer on top of each other, but still everything is very “flat”. I like layers, but I also like keeping them flat for easy mailing.

Wishing you a lovely evening! Weekend is almost here :)!! Yay!
xxx, Sanna
