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.

  • The easy way to make a shaker card!

    You may think a shaker card needs foam adhesive strips or a die-cut window.  Not true! 

    You can make them easily from clear envelopes!  *did you know we have clear envelopes in our Annual catalog? See them on page 135 or here online.  You get 50 envelopes for just $7. 

    More Wishes shakers . Save

    Just add your paper inside the clear envelope (making sure it fits tightly so the shaker pieces don't move behind), pour in some shaker elements like loose sequins or beads, and seal it up.  It's a super fun card to receive; it's a bit addictive to shake!  

    The designer paper is the Walk in the Woods and the stamps are from the More Wishes stamp set; both found in the Holiday catalog. I stamped the greetings on a die-cut from the Nested Essentials dies.

    These cards are included in one of my Christmas card kits to go.  I have three different kit options to choose from; you can see them all here.  

    The kits include everything you need except stamps, ink and adhesives.  You can add on the stamp set at a 10% savings with the purchased kit. These Christmas card kits are limited; opt in while they're available.

  • Double-Decker fun fold card with video tutorial and free project sheet

    Here's the second card we made at my September card clubs. It's a 'Double-Decker' fun fold card. 

    All About Autumn Double Decker Save

    It features the pretty All About Autumn specialty paper that is so popular it's been hard to keep in stock! It should be back around the middle of October.  See it here.  

    ALL ABOUT AUTUMN 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    For the circle die-cuts I chose to use both Stylish Shapes for the Vanilla circles and Deckled circle dies for the Early Espresso circle.  The die-cuts in Vanilla & Copper Clay are from the Magical Meadow dies.

    The greetings are from one of my favorite stamp sets in the Holiday catalog – So Sincere.

    Here's the free project sheet for you: Download Sept '23 Double Decker card

    A double-decker card is where the center layer is popped up by a small box attached to the inside, back of the card like this.

    Autumn Leaves doubledecker Save

    You need to adhere the back layer before adding this box. Then you top it with your center layer; for my version it's a piece of designer paper.

    Autumn Leaves double decker Save

    I added a second circle to the inside designer paper layer for signing.  But one of my smart customers thought of adding it to the back so it doesn't cover up any of the pretty paper. A great idea!
