This weeks tips are all about scoring….

If you have a paper trimmer, like a Fiskars, use an embossing stylus, or a pen that has run out of ink to score your paper. You can line it up so you can measure exactly where you want the score, and the blade track will keep it perfectly straight.

An easy way to score your paper to make a fold is to use an old mouse pad under your paper. This adds a cushion for a better crease and you don’t have to push as hard. Just use a ruler and a bone folder with your mouse pad and you will have perfect folds!

A new and innovative scoring tool is the Scor-Pal. This hard plastic board is grooved in measured intervals and allows you to score your cards and projects. It also has a snap in bone folder so you don’t loose it.
