ripped paper
Jagged-edged document remains
Ripped paper is paper that has been torn, typically showing ragged or uneven edges.
The phrase often appears in craft and design contexts, where ripped paper edges create a deliberate aesthetic effect: She used ripped paper for the collage border.
Digital design sometimes mimics this look: a ripped paper texture overlay.
