Fractured Card Technique

 I spent some time today looking for ideas for different techniques and ways to make cards. Once in a while, as a crafter, your mind needs a little more inspiration!  😊

Today I'm going to share with you a technique that seems to have become a bit popular, and I found it fairly easy to make!  I got this idea from Lynn Dunn, Stamptastic Designs, another Stampin' Up demonstrator.

Here's what you will need:

PAPER:

• 4" x 5-1/4" of a Designer Series Paper (DSP) that you want to use. Choose this piece first and then find your desired color scheme based on your DSP paper.  I used Glorious Gingham, 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper.  The color I chose was the Blueberry Bushel -- large Gingham sheet.
• 5-1/2" X 8-1/2", (scored at 4-1/4") of a coordinating color cardstock.  I used the Blueberry Bushel.
• I cut (4) 1/4" X 5-1/2" strips using the Blueberry Bushel cardstock. 
• Basic White, 2-3/8" square
• Other Cardstock used was:
• Berry Burst
• Fresh Freesia 
• Early Espresso
• Holographic Trio 12" X 12" Specialty Designer Paper

STAMPS & BUNDLES

• Using the Stylish Shapes Dies, I chose the 2-3/8" square.  You will want to use a shape that will be 2-3/8" or smaller in order to work with this card technique.
• I then used the Share a Milkshake Bundle to make my focal point.  

INKS

• Berry Burst Classic Stamp Pad
• Fresh Freesia Classic Stamp Pad
• Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad

ADHESIVES

• Stampin' Seal
• Multipurpose Liquid Glue
• Stampin' Dimensionals
• Mini Stampin' Dimensionals

TOOLS

• Bone Folder
• Paper Trimmer
• Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
