Faux Tearing


Hi Everyone.  Prior to starting our Group of Seven Cardmakers blog, our group kept in touch during Covid and started trying out new and (revised) older techniques.  We are including them as a reference for those that are interesting in trying them out.

June 2022

Supplies:
  • Regular card stock
  • Scrap paper
  • Different colours of ink that work well together (Distress, DOX, Dye) - 3 colours work best
  • Sponges

Technique Instructions:
  • Tear several strips of scrap paper
  • On card stock, starting near bottom, place torn strip just above bottom to use as a mask.
  • Sponge first colour of ink at bottom.
  • Place a torn strip of paper higher up and sponge with second colour
  • Keeping moving up the card stock, adding torn strips as masks and sponging colour below them until you are at the top.
  • Use as background, add stamped images or die-cuts on top to finish card.
