This class was all about gutting paper, screwing it up, tearing and using a ribbler! The ribbler is my new favourite toy so was happy we each got one to bring home. I used the ribbler again on the LO underneath that I did in crop time and also used some spare pieces of paper from the class. The stick on the second one was a stirrer from the tea and coffee station that I made full use of!

I think the top one is my favourite out of the ones you have posted
so far. As you can see, I'm not a minimilist. There is just so uch to
look at. Two more stylish ones.

Haven't used my ribbler for ages, another one of those things that went out of fashion and has come back in.
Great pic of all your lads. Loving the colours.

What paper did you gut, Ruth? There's loads to look at, but I can't see any used twice.
Fantastic LO though and love the title.

Glad to hear ribblers are back in style..I'll have to root mine out again. Mia's been playing with it, lol.

Lou we gutted the plain brown card stock. \a ribbler is a little machine you run paper or card through and it gives a corrugated effect
