Paper tearing is an easy and effective technique to incorporate into your layouts. With this layout,  Kelley demonstrates a great way to add dimension and interest to your tears. 

This layout  was created using papers from the Chatterbox Cottage Room collection (Cottage Rosey Diamond Cardstock, Cottage Rosey Stripe Paper and Cottage Rosey Garden Paper), Chatterbox Alpha 4 Adhesive Transparency, pink ink, kindyglitz, pink pen, chipboard letters, tag and Prima Flowers

Set aside your Cottage Rosey Diamond Cardstock for the background. Tear a strip of Cottage Rosey Stripe Paper approximately 7cm tall and a strip of Cottage Rosey Garden Paper approximately 5.5cm tall. Layer them at the bottom of your page. I have also curled up the edges and inked them with pink ink to�give extra dimension.

Mat your photo with the underside of one of your papers. Lightly ink around the edges and adhere to the centre of your page. 

Cut out part of the floral design from your Cottage Rosey Garden Paper. Embellish with kindyglitz to give in some sparkle and position as shown in the layout above.

Select your Chatterbox Alpha 4 Adhesive Transparency letters and position across the top of your page. Outline each of them with a pink pen to make them stand out from your page.

Select your chipboard letters and position across the bottom of your page. Embellish with kindyglitz to add more sparkle to your layout. 

Use your pink pen to journal on your tag. Use the same pen to go around the edges of the tag to give it an inked feel. Position your tag on the right side of your page, as shown in the layout above.

Finally, embellish with prima flowers. You may also like to add kindyglitz to these to add to the sparkly fairy feel of the page.
