Torn Paper Effect Card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

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.

Colours found in this card are:

 

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.

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.

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.

The whole panel was then glued to the card front, exposing the dsp underneath.

The sentiment, from the Lovely Arrangements stamp set was stamped on the small piece of Basic White card with Misty Moonlight ink. I flagged the end and glued it to the card front.
