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.

  • Book-binding Fold & Tuck card with video & free project sheet


    Here's the second card I shared in last week's video; it's a book-binding card with a twist!  The main panel features the 'Tuck & Fold' technique I shared a few weeks ago. See that card here. 

    The designer paper is the Translucent Floral Online Exclusive seen here.


    Supplies:

    • Center greeting circle is from the Radiating Stitches dies seen here.
    • The Happy Birthday greeting is from the Inked & Tiled stamp set
    • Basics 3D embossing folders were used on the Lemon Lime Twist layer
    • 2022-24 In Color Baker's twine and Sequins Trio are the embellishments

    Download the free project sheet here: Download Delightful Florals Book Binding card

    The pinwheel like layer above starts out with a 6 X 6" piece of designer paper. You score it at 1 1/2" on all sides and cut off the corners as seen below.  

    Then you fold in the outer rectangles into the center and fold back one corner on each side.  Watch the video below to see how it's done.  It's quite easy!  

    Save two of the corners you cut off and cut them in half on the diagonal. It really jazzes up the inside of this card!  

    You can see all three cards included in the video below. Click here to watch it, or scroll down a bit.
