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.

    I am so excited about sharing this project on today's FB Live video!  

    In the photo below you'll see something that looks like a card…. but it's not!  

    It's actually a card folio that 'fits' cards inside.  Today is a sneak peek; I'll share details in the video today and more on tomorrow's blog post. 

    I've made one years ago and when my friend Susie Wood shared hers I had to make one too!  I chose to use the Good Feelings stamp set seen here.  It's on sale starting today with the Seasonal Sale.  It was $24 but is not $20.40.  

    In the folio I used the Contoured Scalloped dies for the frame, a few dies from the Penned Flower dies seen here.  They were $30 and are now $24. I also used the coordinating Hand-Penned Petal stamp set seen here.  They were $22 and are now $18.70. 

    My colors include Soft Succulent, Petal Pink, Evening Evergreen and Calypso Coral.  The pretty Designer Paper is the new Fitting Florets seen here; it's available through January 4th or while supplies last.  It's also part of my card kit to go seen here or the PDF tutorial here.

    Join me here at 11 am Central time on Facebook.  Or click here to see it on YouTube later.
