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.

  • Gift card pop-up card; a fun fold that’s easy! Featuring Pretty Prints, Art Gallery & Radiating Stitches dies


    I shared two neat fun fold cards in this week's Live video.  Pretty Prints DSP seen here was featured in both. 

    This designer paper is an easy favorite; the soft, botanical prints and 4 rich colors are gorgeous!

    Here's the card I shared; it's a pop up gift card holder:

    The front greeting is from the Art Gallery dies seen here.  They're discounted now; they were $34 and are now just $13.60. These words are cut from Evening Evergreen card stock and adhered to a white die-cut from the Radiating Stitches dies.  These are on the Online Exclusives products but are currently unavailable. They will be back in May. 

    My colors include Evening Evergreen (so sad it's retiring!) and Soft Sea Foam.  

    Measurements:

    • Card Base 4 ¼” X 11” score at 2 ¼” & 7 ¾”
    • White front is 2 5/8” X 4”, inside gift card pop up is 3 ½” X 7” score at ½” & 5”
    • Designer Paper – upper is 4" X 3", lower is 4" X 2"


    I used the wonderful Kind & Sincere stamp set for this card; it's discounted to $15.60 and on the Last Chance list. I love the mixed font and how many phrases you can make with the greeting images. See it here. 

    This next photo shows you how the gift card layer works.  The 1/2" flap is adhered to the upper front of the card.  The lower fold is tucked in the lower fold of the card base.  The ribbon around it secures it closed; there isn't any adhesive used on the lower flap.
