One of my favorite sentiments from the Woven Strands collection is on the UM Greeting sheet. I selected the King of Diamonds card from the Vol. 5 Idea Deck and created this set of six "tearable" cards in less than an hour!

I used one 12x12 Burgundy Plain, one 12x12 White Print, and one 12x12 Dark Green Print from the Deluxe paper collection, and the 8.5x11 Text Weight (Quad) Print from Woven Strands Club Stamp.

1. Select papers required for the card formula.

5. Add torn strips of paper from the 8.5x11 Text Weight (Quad) Print to the cards. Stamp sentiments with India Black or White Pigment ink.
