Vintage Materials Tag

Craft with authentic vintage materials for paper crafting.

For this week’s tag, I’m working with materials from Betty’s Bits and Bobs, specifically pieces from a Mid-Century Modern package. What makes these collections especially fun to work with is that the contents are made up of authentic pieces from the past. While each package follows the same general theme, no two will be exactly alike, giving every project its own unique bit of history and vintage character.


Please visit Betty’s Bits and Bobs to see where to purchase.

I added a few additional elements from my own stash to complement the Mid-Century ephemera, incorporating coordinating papers and mediums to build layers of color, texture, and interest. Mixing these newer materials with the authentic vintage pieces helped bring everything together while still allowing the original ephemera to remain the focus of the tag.
