Shining Christmas Fractured Card

 I saw a version of this card featuring our gorgeous, new, Online Exclusive DSP, Shining Christmas. I'm still loving these Fractured Cards, so decided to create one with this technique DSP! I just love it!  We will be doing this one in class this week, too!



Measurements:  

  • Mossy Meadow: 1/2 sheet, scraps
  • Shining Christmas DSP (N) (OE): 4" x 5 1/4" (holly), 1/2" x 4" (inside)
  • Cherry Cobbler: 4 strips 1/4" x 4", scraps
  • Basic White: 2 1/2" square, 4" x 5 1/4" (inside), scrap
To Make This Card:

  • Die cut 2" stitched square from Stylish Shapes dies from White piece.  Emboss with "cross hatch" embossing folder.
  • Center White square to the DSP. DO NOT ADHERE TO FRONT OF CARD, YET.
  • Next, take one 1/4" Cherry Cobbler strip and lay from corner of square, along the cut edge of the square, and off the DSP layer. 
  • Then, lay the next strip, butting the end to the previously laid strip, and laying this one also along cut edge and off the DSP.  Repeat until all 4 layers are done.
  • Next, trim off the strips so that they are even with the DSP.
  • NOW, adhere the DSP layer to the folded Mossy Meadow card.
  • Die cut 2 "holly leaves" in Mossy Meadow.  Attach to card, as shown.
  • I also cut 1 set of "holly berries" in Cherry Cobbler. Attach to card over "holly" as shown.
  • Die cut label from Cheerful Daisies Dies (I LOVE this shape). 
  • Stamp "Christmas" in Mossy Meadow ink, then add the "Merry" on top, fitting it onto the label. (this IS a 2-step sentiment). Attach to card with Dimensionals.
  • Add White piece to the inside. Add a decorative strip inside, too.
  • Finish with scattered Red Festive Pearls, and larger Rhinestones from the retired Holiday embellishments.
