Taking scrap paper (typing paper works great) rip and edge, then repeat on another scrap paper.
Put a line of 2-way glue on the edge of the ripped paper and let it air dry. Once the glue is dry is is post it note sticky. Cool huh!
Lay the two ripped edges glue side down facing each other with on your card stock facing each other with a strip of card stock showing. Your scrap paper should cover the rest of your card stock so you do not get any ink or smudges on it.
Using a sponge carefully rub some ink on the card stock over the ripped paper edges. Lighter ink in the center moving toward the ripped edges with a darker color. This gives depth and light to the art.
Now stamp selected images over the rubbed ink. Once you are all done and like the outcome, remove the paper carefully and you have Faux Paper!
Add a few more embelishments and greeting. This make a great guys card. Stampin Up has added some really good guy stamps sets in the new catalog. Check them out at the link on the left. You can order the set in wood or clear by clicking on the link below.
