Fractured Card Technique

The Fractured Card Technique is new to me and I heard about it from a challenge in a training group I belong to. It’s very easy to do and the results are amazing.

Let me know which one you like best in the comments of my video so I know which one to submit for the challenge.

 
 

Watch the video to learn how to do this technique. You won’t believe how easy it is. Make some of your own and then post them on my Facebook Page so I can see what you made.

 
 

Tip & Instructions

  • Pretty Peacock Card Base - 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, score at 4 1/4

  • Hello, Irresistible Designer Series Paper Layer - 5 1/4 x 4

  • Pretty Peacock Strips - 4 strips 1/4” wide

  • Basic White Label - cut using the Stylish Shapes Dies (I used the 3rd from largest).

  • Stamp sentiment with Pretty Peacock Ink on the square turning it so it becomes a diamond shape first. Adhere to the Designer Series Paper.

  • Adhere each strip along the square as show on the card. Cut off the excess from the back and adhere to card base.

  • Tie bow with Lost Lagoon Bordered Ribbon and adhere with a Mini Glue Dot.

  • Add some Pretty Peacock Tinsel Gems.

 
 

On the inside layer stamp some leaves with Lost Lagoon Ink.

 
 

For this card I used the Bright & Beautiful Designer Series Paper and Beautiful Balloons Stamp Set. The card base is Azure Afternoon and the strips are Lemon Lolly. I stamped the sentiment with Berry Burst and added Lemon Lolly Ribbon from the Sheer Ribbon Combo Pack. I added a Berry Burst Tinsel Gem to finish it off.

 
 

For the inside layer I stamped the sentiment with Berry Burst Ink, the balloons with Lemon Lolly and Azure Afternoon Inks and the tassel with Black Memento Ink. I used a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to draw the strings.

 
 

This fun card was made using the Zoo Crew Designer Series Paper. I cut the cute dog from the Designer Series Paper using the Stylish Shapes Dies. The card base and strips are Basic Black and I glued them right to the edge of the card base. I stamped the sentiment on Basic White with Black Memento Ink and cut it out with the smallest square from the dies and then used my Trimmer to cut a 1 1/4 x 1 1/4 square to add a mat. The black Sparkle Gems give it a nice finish.

 
 

On the inside layer I stamped the sentiment with Black Memento Ink. I cut the raccoon from the Designer Series Paper using the coordinating dies.

 
 

The final card was made using the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper and Crafting With You Stamp Set. The card base and strips are Fresh Freesia and the sentiment was stamped with Night of Navy Ink. I added a bow using the Night of Navy Bordered Ribbon.

 
 

On the inside add a 4 x 3/4 strip of the Designer Series Paper.
