Challenge - Digital Challenges : Make your own torn paper

This week's digital challenge is to create your own torn paper to use on a layout. There are numerous ways to achieve this effect digitally! I chose to use the eraser tool along with grunge brushes to get the "torn" look. First i chose the paper i wanted to use, then i selected the eraser tool and chose a grunge brush with an uneven edge. Then i erased the edge of the paper. After that, I used the burn tool to give more depth and texture to the torn edge.

Here is great tutorial from Kate Teague with another technique to use as well!

Have fun digi scrapping this week!
