Hello and welcome to the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop where we are sharing torn paper techniques. The version of the torn paper technique I am sharing was very popular two or three years ago, but I never got around to trying it……. now is my chance. I have used the Thoughtful Journey designer series paper (dsp) to make my card.
To recreate the torn paper effect card, you will need:
Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side Misty Moonlight Two Tone card – 5½” by 3¾” Thoughtful Journey dsp – 5¼” by 2¾” Basic White card – 2 ¼” by ½”
The piece of Thoughtful Journey dsp was adhered to the front of the Thick Basic White card front.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Lovely Arrangements stamp set used with the Thoughtful Journey dsp to create a torn paper card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop
I placed the panel of Misty Moonlight Two Tone card (lighter side uppermost) on top and worked out which part of the dsp I wanted to show and marked the card with a pencil.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The Lovely Arrangements stamp set used with the Thoughtful Journey dsp to create a torn paper card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop
I then carefully tore a strip down the centre of the card to just over half-way. Using a Bone Folder I curved the loose middle section and carefully rolled it up gluing it in place with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

If you don’t have a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator I would love to be yours! If you don’t have a catalogue and live in the UK, please let me know and I will be delighted to send you one. To order any supplies click on the “shop online” button at the top of the page. Alternatively, contact me and I would be happy to place an order for you. To join my team either click on the link above or click on the contact me button above and I will contact you with more information.
