Tearing
This can be in any form, but, as subtle or as bold as you like!

For my card I have taken three pieces of backing paper from my stash and torn them; each a little larger than the other. I then inked the edges with Distress Inks. These were glued to a square card. My main image is Hero Arts "Real Dill" and I inked it up with Distress Inks and spritzed it with water before stamping to give it a watercolour look. This was then matted and added over the torn bp. The sentiment is from Waltzingmouse. Finishing touches are matching pearls and a piece of ribbon.Thanks for dropping by.
Happy crafting.
Lovely card Karen and love how you have done your tearing....great stamping also

I've come to the conclusion you can't be creative and efficient!! Love the way you've made this card, especially the watercolour effect of the dill and of course the torn layers.
ReplyDeleteLovely torn background, Karen. Fab creativity if not efficiency!
