Anna Griffin set of 4 Tearing Rulers - 584495
One time only price of £13.29 with free p&p
Does any one already have these? I'm tempted but would like to know whether they are any good. I would like to be able to tear into light cardstock as well as paper.

I have these....bought them a couple of years ago when they first came out. The light cardstock thing does depend on the grain of the cardstock and how "snappable" the fibres of the card are...eg muberry paper is very thin but the fibres are tough and it needs wetting before you tear it, even then it will follow the line of weakness in the paper rather than the tearing edge of the ruler. These are good, but a word of warning, because they are so good, they are actually sharp enough in places to cut yourself on if you aren't careful (as I wasn't, so I did :)

I have one of AG tearing rulers, I think it was in an old TSV. I have never quite got the hang of using it properly though and it sits in my craft bag gathering dust

Thanks ladies am still not sure whether to go for these, I'm terrible at making up my mind. I could always buy more stamps with the money instead. :D

Thanks, I already have 1 tearing ruler - just bought this set I love them, they are lovely for sky or the sea, or for getting grass with texture and colour.

I bought them a few months ago & sent them back. Don't know why I bought them in the first place really as I'm not into paper tearing. I think that woman on CAC from MIC put me off - she can't seem to make a card without 'ripping and tearing'.
