CASology #197: Tear

Hi All,

Is ‘tear’ a verb or a noun? You decide!

I treated it as a verb, and created my sea by  ‘tearing’ a strip of post-it paper, and inking across the edge of it, into the negative space created by a die-cut circle. This gave me a lovely textured edge, without the need to add a layer.

To maintain white space, but to create some interest, I scored the base card, paper-pieced the boat sails and added three gemstone ‘port-holes’. Enough faffing about with one wee boat, don’t you think!

The DT have taken you down a variety of noun and verb paths this week. Take a look!
