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!

HELLO, IRRESISTIBLE 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

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.

  • Little Ladybug Spinner Card!!

    This fabulous spinner card was made by my friend Susie Wood; she sent one to me as we like to make cards for each other to share with our customers.  I love her style so much.  Visit her blog here. 

    Little Ladybug Susie Save

    Isn't it adorable?!  It's classic Red, Black & White; perfect for the Ladybug set. The center circles are 1 3/4" and 2" in size. The Black piece is 4" X 3 1/4" in size and that circular opening is 2 3/8" using the Circles Collection dies and punches.

    This cute stamp set is FREE with any $300 order placed during Sale-a-Bration; January through March 2020.  If you don't think you can swing that large of an order I have a few suggestions for you. 

    1. Have a workshop/party and invite your friends. Their orders will add up so you can earn it free!
    2. Place one big order (if you can). You'll get 6 free $50 Sale-a-Bration items at the same time and earn $36 in free hostess benefits. 
    3. Have a book party; inviting your fellow stamping friends to order. I can open a host code so all of the orders can be shipped to each person's ome. Sale-a-Bration is a great time to order!  Free products for each $50 you spend.
    4. Purchase the starter kit and join as a Demonstrator!  Then you get 20% off your $300 order so you're really spending just $240 to earn this set!  Plus you would get 6 free Sale-a-Bration items at the same time and $36 in free hostess benefits. 

    All you need for a spinner card is a window, something to spin and some string or thread.  She used our Silver metallic thread here.  The window is made with our Circles Collection Framelits. 

    Watch the FB live replay video below to see how it's done.

    You might wonder where the black polka dots came from. She used a sponge dauber!  So easy!!

    Or place an order with me during January and get in on the prize drawing for one lucky person who will get this stamp set free!   

     

    The card above on the left was made by my friend Susie Wood; it's a spinner card!  I loved it so much I had to make one.  I'll share the details on that card tomorrow and another card next week. 

    Little Ladybug windows.. Save

    I used punches to create the windows on this card from the 5 1/4" X 4" Black CS; it's really a great way to highlight your images.  Sometimes I struggle with smaller images; just what do you do with them to create a great card?! 

    You could use anything in the windows; greetings, flowers, critters – the sky's the limit!  Look at your stamps in a whole new way! 

    Did you notice the 'fussy cut' greetings?  I have a tip for you!  Save the paper backing on your red rubber stamps and use it as an outline to trace over your stamped greeting.  Or if you didn't save it, trace the main rubber stamp itself.  Save the template in your stamp case for repeated use.
