Paper Card Frames

Paper Card Frames is a set of 11 card, currency and notification components drawn in the flat style, where there are no outlines and no shading at all. It contains four rarity card frames, three currency counters, a notification badge and three toast banners.

Rarity is almost always encoded as a border colour, which fails twice: it disappears in greyscale, and it competes with the item art, which is itself coloured. This set encodes rarity as structure instead.

Depth comes only from a layered soft shadow — three stacked passes rather than a blur filter, because some SVG rasterisers scale a blur wrongly and the 4x PNG comes out as a smear. Everything else is one solid colour.

Inside that style this is the Paper reading of it: a light interface on a warm paper palette with rust red accents, built around a single bordered frame, fully rounded pill buttons at 140x44, banded bars divided into 10 segments, and outlined icons on a 24px grid. Those measurements are why two families can share an art style without being interchangeable: the style decides how an edge is drawn, the numbers decide what the interface is for.

Each tier adds a countable feature — common has none, rare adds two corner brackets, epic adds an inner rule and four brackets, legendary adds a crown band. You can tell them apart at thumbnail size, in a screenshot, and with the colour removed. The toast banners keep colour to a 6px edge stripe so the message text sits at the same contrast in all three tones.

Every sprite ships as an editable SVG and as transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x, so you can drop the PNGs straight into an engine or open the vector and change a colour. Built to the same measurements as the rest of the Paper family, which means this kit and the Paper panel kit line up without either being resized. A good fit for minimal and mobile interfaces.
