Welcome to another edition of Technique Tuesday here on the blog. Today I am playing with the Fault Line technique - a fun design with lots of texture.
I’m getting inky with the Fun for Fall stamp set and the August POM Glow of Harvest
Glow of Harvest DSP
Measurements
- Card base 5 1/2” x 8 1/2” score at 4 1/4”
- Mat layer 5 1/4” x 4”
- Insert 5 1/4” x 4”
- DSP layer 3 7/8” x 3 7/8”
- Light Cardstock layer 3 7/8” x 2 3/4” - stamp sentiment in lower right corner and add any background stamps desired
- Dark Cardstock Layer 3 7/8” x 2 3/4”
- Focal image as desired
Process Steps:
- Fold card base and add dark mat to front of card and insert inside.
- Adhere the DSP layer centred on the front mat.
- Layer the light and dark cardstock on top of each other with the light on top - do not adhere yet. Starting on the left side closer to the top gently rip in half going down at an angle stopping just a top of the stamped sentiment.
- Once torn glue the two top layers together with the dark cardstock matted slight off to create the fault line layer and repeat with the bottom layer.
- Adhere the top and bottom torn pieces onto the card centred at the top and bottom of the DSP layer so it becomes the peek out between the two fault lines.
- Add your focal image and any embellishments to finish your design.
Quick process video for the visual learners:
Love the effect of the fault line design technique - adds a unique texture & dimension with the little scarecrow bracing himself between the opening fault with blowing leaves surrounding him. Fun little ‘Hope your day is wonderful’ card for a Fall birthday or just because or thank you card.
Happy Stampin’
