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.

  • Stack & Cut cards with Dandy Designs & Something Fancy with PDF project sheet & template download!

    I LOVE the cards I'm sharing with you today!!  So much!  

    They're 'Stack & Cut' cards using an easy template I'll share below.  I created these for last week's Facebook Live.  The Dandy Design SAB designer paper features gorgeous color combinations like this one:

    Who would have thought Balmy Blue & Coastal Cabana would be so pretty together?!  I sure didn't.  But with the small prints and the addition of White & Pool Party it works beautifully. 

    Each set of cards feature this neat Dandy Designs designer paper seen here.  This huge pack of 48 12 X 12" sheets is free during Sale-a-Bration with any $100 purchase.

    For each of these sets of cards I also featured the Something Fancy bundle.  It's one of my top picks. See it here.  The greetings are great but the dies!  WOW; the tags and layers are perfect!  

    SOMETHING FANCY BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    Add this bundle to your order and you're over half way towards getting the Dandy Designs paper pack free! All of these tags and greeting die-cuts are from these Something Fancy dies.  

    This next set is all pastels in Fresh Freesia & Petal Pink; another color combo I would never have put together.  But it works!

    You also might notice that each card is a fun fold.  Here are the measurements:

    • Horizontal cards – 4 1/4" X 11" card base, scored at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
    • Vertical cards 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base, scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4" 

    Below is the template I used.  I started out with 4 pieces of designer paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5".  I cut two at a time using the measurements on the template.  Then I cut 4 pieces of card stock for the layer under the designer paper pieces.  It's so easy and a fabulous way to use up your designer paper AND get a bunch of cards done quickly.

  • Note my NEW YouTube channel, email address plus free project download!

    I've so much to do today that I'm posting a repeat project.  BUT, it's a huge favorite and if you haven't seen it or made one I'm sure you're going to add it to your list of projects in the future. 

    But first an update on my email and YouTube channel. 

    Last week my Google account was hijacked.  I lost some of my contacts, had to get a new email address (click here) and lost my YouTube channel and ALL of my 16,700 subscribers!  It's still a huge shock! 

    I have contacted Google and they may help me recover my channel.  Chances are low this will happen, but in the meantime I've created a new one.  PLEASE subscribe to it if you enjoy my videos.  Here's the link.
