First I found some torn paper brushes on the internet to download to give the effect that I wanted

I then duplicated the background layer and added a layer mask

With the layer mask selected I used the paint brush tool with the torn brushes I had downloaded to create a rip across the background

Next to make the tear more realistic I added a white outline. To do this I created a new layer which I filled white and added a layer mask again. This time I cut out the centre of the tear leaving a border at each of the edges to give the white effect at the edge of the rip.


Lastly I added and Hue/ Saturation layer and turned the saturation down to 0, leaving the original base layer below the tear, making behind the tear appear to be in black and white
