Aloha Stampers!
The Fault Line Technique refers to a creative card-making method where a paper card front is torn, layered, and then adhered to a base card, revealing a contrasting patterned paper or stamped image underneath.
This card really shows off the beautiful Mediterranean Blooms Designer Series Paper! Basically, you tear two pieces of paper at the same time and then layer them together.
Piece #1: Start with a 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″ piece of cardstock, scored at 5 1/2″ to create the card base.
Piece #2: Patterned Paper 4 1/4″ x 3″
Piece #3: Center piece 4 1/4″ x 4 1/4″
Piece #4: Back 4 1/4″ x 5 7/16″
Instructions:
-
Fold your card base. Line up Piece #2 with the small front flap of the card base. Tear both the front flap of the card base and the patterned paper, diagonally, at the same time.
-
Glue patterned paper to the cardstock pieces so the it shows beneath the cardstock piece ~1/4″. Do this for the top and for the bottom.
-
Place Piece #3 under the small front flap, and place the bottom so that it lines up with the bottom of your inside card. Glue the card base to the patterned paper.
-
Use Piece #4 as a backing for your card front.
