Hi Playmates
I've been tearing (around) again!
The likely cause is that I have been learning about junk journaling over the last few months and have been ripping and tearing up all sorts of things to make ephemera. It's very satisfying!
What's more, I found I could apply some of my newly acquired junk journal knowledge to card making. Tearing up those last snippets of patterned paper is a GREAT way to add some interest and definition. As I've left the torn edges white on a white card blank, they're not so noticeable in the photo, but you can see them easily in real life! I could have inked the edges, but I preferred to keep them plain in this instance.

Awesome card Sarn love that paper, do like a torn edge, your bins must be almost empty these days! Xxx
ReplyDeleteThis is fun and it's great how techniques can cross over from journalling to card making and vice versa. Have a ripping weekend 😉
ReplyDeleteSuper make and the colour and design of your ripped paper looks terrific with the simple stamped design - FAB!

A gorgeous card, Sarn! Great use of the patterned paper snippets! I have so many of them, really should use them more!!
ReplyDeleteCiao Sarn, la tua card è favolosa e così moderna! Amo così tanto il tearing e le due strisce sono bellissime qui! Posso vedere il bordo bianco allargando la foto, soprattutto quella del sentiment! Sei sempre così ispiratrice!
ReplyDeleteAbbracci, ci vediamo nella casa sull'albero per bere qualcosa insieme!
Fabulous card, the torn layers with the white edge look like they were stamped versus patterned paper!

What a clever idea - now I know where you got the torn buzz from - super card Sarn! Love the vibrant colours against the stark black and white image - which to me looks like a hand drawn wineglass - or have I got cooling drinks too much on my mind right now?!
