As an additional plus, this card is also a one-layer card as well! I saw a card made by stampinwithdiane the other day using a faux tear and single layer technique, so she was the inspiration for my card today. I cut out the single piece to fit from a large post-it, and tore around the entire edge. When I then stamped with the BG stamp (using Groovy Guava) there was an unstamped edge around the post-it, so I sponged Tangerine Tango along the edge to make it look like an additional layer for the center "layer". Used an aquabrush to water color the bridge and groom. Also, I know the poly-twill chocolate chip ribbon is technically not available, so pretend we are using the 1/4" chocolate chip grosgrain we will be getting back in the FW 2008 Catty! TFL, and thanks for the challenge!

Your card is fabulous. Thanks for letting us know how you did this faux tearing. It's quite different from the other samples for this technique. Your colors are happy, as the occasion should be.
Thanks for sharing.
