Now, one of the options that, to begin with is simple method of tearing the paper. Now,
that may just seem as easy as ripping the corners, ripping an edge, and ripping an edge,
and perhaps you like the piece that you've torn off, and the shape and the different
things that have been encompassed inside. Something like this has a straight edge because
it came from the actual edge of the paper. I tend to use that a lot. It actually helps
a lot when you're doing the edges of your piece that you don't actually have to come
up with a perfectly straight lined edge to make up into your piece. So say I wanted that
one to go in there; it already fits perfectly that way, and the torn edges fit inside of
the piece; interestingly, that way. One of the options though, that I want you to be
thinking about when you're tearing a piece is that when you're trying to do it on an
edge, if you want a clean edge, such as the ones that we're working with today, it's not
really as efficient for working, as you can see, because what's going to end up happening
is that edge is going to get cut off anyway. So, I'm working with a clean edge, and then
I'm working with actually torn edges inside of the piece itself, and again, I'll get into
that a little bit more later. Another way for you to tear an edge is to use a straight
edge itself, and use the paper after you've made a line, and tear the edge such like that.
