How to do the Fractured Card Technique

The Fractured Card Technique is so easy to do and creates a real WOW card. You can use any patterned paper you have and coordinating cardstock for the base and strips. Play with it and have fun. I used quite a variety of products to make these cards and I love each one. Leave me a comment to let me know which one I should post for the challenge!

Great idea❣️I love the black/white card❣️ Would you be so kind to let me know the dimensions of the white square? I don’t have the cutting set.

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks so much. The square measures 1-7/8 but you can cut it whatever size you want. Have fun!

[@terryiggulden5182]

I like the pop up idea. I would put a blank square down, adhere the strips, then put on the stamped square. Love this card

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks Terry, good idea, thanks for sharing!

[@juleenh4672]

I can't wait to try this technique! I love the black and white....it really POPS!

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks Juleen, have fun making some cards with this technique!

[@barbaragec]

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Hi Claire, sure, you can find the instructions for this card on my Blog. Here's the link - www.pspapercrafts.com/blog/2023/7/28/fractured-card-technique

[@karenrodgers3566]

In order the green, Zany Zoo, Handmade Hugs, then the Bright and beautiful

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks so much Karen, appreciate your input!

[@MadPrincessKreations]

I like the “hug” one. Which one did you submit for the challenge?

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks, I ended up submitting the Thank You card (green) but it wasn't selected :(

[@lisabandemer1728]

I don't have the stylish shape dies. What is the dimensions of the square?

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Hi Lisa, the square measures 1-7/8 but you can cut it whatever size you want. Have fun!

[@SarahGross27]

I choose zoo crew. It’s a great design to use over and over again.

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks Sarah! That is a cute one!

[@dliles773]

Hard to pick but it the happy birthday dots one for me.

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks so much, glad you like them!

[@lindalange7035]

Hard to choose thinking the last one you made❤

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks Linda, that seems to be the winner!!!

[@DonnasCraftingWhimsy]

Hi Patti- I cased the zany zoo design and meshed it with Friendship Royalty. I also edited my Royalty stamp to "You we re born to be Fabulous" and used that and Happy Birthday and stamped the wand wave inside the card..& stamped sentiment in Peacock . Really worked And you really energized me with your ideas here- as I wanted to use Irresstible Blooms- which will be next -TY

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Wow, sounds like a nice version of the card. It's so nice that we can just change up products and come up with different cards. I'm so happy that you like it and made some.

[@DonnasCraftingWhimsy]

@@PattiDolanpspapercrafts I made the shutter card for a 13 card swap! Never did such a big swap! You made it look so easy- and now I'm confident when swaps come around.. I also like that your designs are different, and trending ..So glad i found your channel!

[@diannecrowe9183]

Beautiful cards, love this idea.. I really like the bright and beautiful card, because it is bright. Wish I had that paper but will see what I do have to make one. Thanks for sharing.

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks so much Dianne, I'm so glad you like it. This is a great technique for any patterned paper.

[@joleneharmon1462]

Thanks Brendaelaine, have fun making some!

[@kinjo5416]

Love simple cards that I'm not afraid to try. I think I might try using washi tape instead of strips of paper. Thank you for sharing this technique with us. Looks way harder than it is.

[@PattiDolanpspapercrafts]

Thanks and that's a great idea, I'll have to try with washi tape!

[@fairuzab6276]

My first impression its goin to be tough but after watching your tutorial, not so! Thank u, I enjoyed it!
