The easy way to make a ‘Fractured’ card! Video tutorial & free project sheet!


You may have seen these cards online lately; they're quite popular.  It looked s bit intimidating to me; I thought I'd have to do a lot of measuring to get the pieces to fit exactly.  

Well my team member Karen shared how to make them at our August Team meeting and I was surprised to learn it's quite easy peasy!  So I had to share the fractured card on a recent Live video so YOU could see how fun & quick it is.

I chose to use the Hello, Irresistible designer paper and the Irresistible Blooms stamp set; both Online Exclusives. See all of our products available online here.  There are so many they have their own category!  

This card starts out with a full 4" X 5 1/4" layer of designer paper.  The center squares and strips are added on directly over the designer paper!  No measuring needed!!

This pretty designer paper is in low inventory.  Do you have it yet?  It's just beautiful!

My center squares are approximately 2" in size and are from the Stylish Shapes dies – the middle die of the 5 square dies. I chose to add a 2 1/4" layer under my square.  

Tip: Once you adhere your square to the upper center (eyeballing, no measuring needed) you will start adding your 1/4" X 5" strips of card stock.  You start at the upper center.  Leave the excess strips hanging off the card until you're done; then just trim off.  *watch the video below to see my helpful tips for success. 

Here are both cards I shared in the video; one in Pretty Peacock and the other in Petal Pink. 

 

Which do you prefer?  One is soft and pretty and the other is vibrant. I like the 1/4" strips to match the card base; I feel it gives a greater sense of continuity.  

I kept these cards quite simple but you could certainly add more to it.

  • Nuts About Squirrels fun fold card with Stamparatus video


    We made this cute card at my October card clubs.  See the video towards the bottom of this post. 

    It features the Nuts About Squirrels stamp set in the Holiday catalog.  Click here to see it. 

    My colors include Soft Suede, Pumpkin Pie, Vanilla & Pear Pizzazz.  See the tag?  We stamped directly on the die-cut tag using Soft Suede ink. This tag is from the Pretty Pillow Box dies on page 9 of the Holiday catalog. 

    Measurements:

    • Soft Suede 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" and 4 1/4" plus 1 7/8" X 5 1/4"
      Pumpkin Pie 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
      Very Vanilla 3 1/4" X 4 1/2" for front & inside
      Cork paper – scrap for die-cut tag (Pretty Pillow Box dies)

    The Stamparatus made stamping the squirrel images so easy & perfectly placed too! See that here.  It's the best stamp positioning tool out there!

    Watch this video below for lots of tips.

    I have a few more Eden's Garden cards to share today.  This first one features the stamps & dies.  I know many of you are loving the Ever Eden Designer paper but the stamps & dies are also lovely!  

    This card is one of the cards in my free 4 card class this month.  Anyone who places an order over $50 receives a pre-cut card class & PDF.  The kit does not include stamping but everything is die-cut for you; even the bow is done!

    Do you see the texture on the large Soft Succulent layer?  That is from the die itself; not an embossing folder.  You can see how that's done in the video shown here. 

    I used Evening Evergreen & Cherry Cobbler ink and the Eden's Garden stamp set. 

    The next card features the pretty Ever Eden Designer Paper as well as the stamps & dies seen here.  It's a unique layout with just a few layered 2" squares, a stamped background and the pretty greeting label die-cuts. 

    Note the layering effect on these dies.  I share how to do that on the video link above.
