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.

  • Easiest Shake Card Ever; plus the quickest Christmas cards you can make!!


    Have you wanted to make a shaker card but didn't want to deal with the Foam Adhesive and window sheets?  Well I have a solution for you!  Use a clear envelope!  Yes; it works beautifully!

    I used one of the Wonder of the Season cards, cutting it down to 4" X 5 1/4" and adding another layered strip.  I then inserted it into one of our clear envelopes (seen here) and folded the excess to the back, securing it with Tear & Tape.  Then I added some Sequins for Everything and sealed it up.  It's adhered to a Real Red card base and the greeting is adhered to the front. 

    The stamps are from the Tag Buffet stamp set. 

    You can watch how I did this in the video below; it's one of the first projects. 

    In the video I also shared the Wonder of the Season Memories & More projects.  These cards are beautiful and filled with gold & red foil accents.  I love these because they are super quick & easy!  All I added were some Red rhinestones!  No stamping or extra card stock!  

    Here are a few I made:

    Remember I only used three products on these!  All you need are the cards (seen here) and the cards & envelopes (seen here) and Red Rhinestones.

    You can use the 3 X 4" cards for the pretty card bases so the foil accents show.  Or flip the front to the inside and use the larger 4" X 6" cards on the front.  This way you can still see that pretty foil on the inside! 

    Watch the video below to see these projects & more!
