New Paper Cutter


As many of my readers know, I have several different paper cutters and have been very disappointed with all of them. I think if I cut a sheet of paper in half then I should have two matching pieces. Not one piece slightly bigger or angled at one end. Well this past week I wondered into Michael's and they had their trimmers and punches on sale for 40% off. I saw this one by Making Memories and thought I would get out of the Fiskars line and try this one out. Oh My Goodness...I love it! It is supposed to be self sharpening so you don't ever have to change your blade, it folds up in half for easy storage, and the BEST thing is that it comes with a magnetic ruler. So no more having to line up your paper for every 4.25" cut. You put the ruler in that location and just butt your paper against the ruler and cut, cut, cut. Did I mention that it cuts through 2 pieces of Stampin' Up White like butter? So now I have three can't do without craft tools...My Scor-Pal, My ATG-50 from Tape Depot, and now this trimmer. I'll be pitching my old trimmers.
