Challenge 19

Tear it up!
This challenge is about using tearing in your projects. It adds great texture and visual interest. The possibilities are literally limitless with this technique, and who doesn't like that as an option?
We are pleased that Core'dinations is sponsoring the RAK for this challenge, so some lucky player will be getting something new to tear!

For this layout, I used Core'dinations for my photo mat and tore the top, middle and bottom edges.


Deborah tore the large background patterned paper to let the background peek through and ground the layout.


Alicia tore the patterned paper along the top edge of her two page layout to create visual continuity.


Jen used tearing to fill in the wonderful shapes she had created with her sewing. This created a beautiful and texturally intriguing way to help tell her story.

All different, all the same technique, can't wait to see what you have to share!

I hope this counts, I have torn the edges and used scissors to get a nice texture on the pp´s! The Swirls are doodled! Thanks for looking!
