I never thought at my age, that I would need tips and instruction for fussy cutting but then you come along and I find out that all of this video was well needed. Thank you again so much.

@lauraalbertscrafts 3 года назад

I'm so glad it was helpful, Shirley! It never ceases to amaze me, that after 20 years of scrapbooking, I still have plenty to learn too!

Ty for teaching basics in cutting because I’m an old 68 year old new crafter and since I was a child had trouble cutting.

@lauraalbertscrafts 5 месяцев назад

I'm glad it was helpful! Cutting can be a challenging skill to learn, some of my kids struggled with it too.

@jaytee2642 Год назад

I don't fussy cut because I suck at it, but your helpful tips have encouraged me to give it another try. It never occurred to me to hold the scissors on a slant!✂️👍🏻

@lauraalbertscrafts Год назад

So glad it was helpful! I find that holding them on a slant makes the cuts much easier to see and takes the stress off my wrist.

@carolyngurney5376 Год назад

I am left handed and cutting is very hard for me whether I use left-handed or right-handed scissors. I really appreciate all of your tips. Having you show exactly how to cut was very helpful.

@lauraalbertscrafts Год назад

So glad it was helpful! Two of my kiddos are lefties and it’s a challenge! A good pair of scissors that are comfortable for you is definitely worth it!

@thebiscuitscraps 3 года назад

Nice to find a fellow fussy cutter. I, too, am a detail crafter. Fussy cuttings soothes my paper cutting soul. I cut while I watched/listened to you. Happy crafting.

@lauraalbertscrafts 3 года назад

Yes! I find fussy cutting incredibly relaxing and focusing on the details is so soothing for my mind. Thanks for watching!

@lauraalbertscrafts 3 года назад

Thank you very much, Colleen! I'm so glad it was helpful! I know you can sharpen scissors, but mine tend to get nicked from me using them for things other than paper (bad I know!). My the end of the year, they are usually pretty beaten up and sometimes I've even managed to mess up the alignment!

You answered so many questions, and I will be more confident now. I didn't know about the Tim Holtz scissors. I don't like the serrated edge when fussy cutting. Now I know how to hold them to prevent that! Thank you so much for this video!

I just ran into your video today, and it is quite useful and informative! One other tip I learned a few years ago, which you may have mentioned, but I didn’t see it, “put both elbows on the table as you fussy cut” … that definitely helps me have a steadier hand.

@lauraalbertscrafts Год назад

Glad it was helpful! I tend to fussy cut on the sofa and find that if I tuck my arms in close to my body that really helps prevent sore wrists!

Thank you very much, Joan! The Scan n Cut is definitely a great option if you are not a fussy cutter, but I love it! It's awesome you found something that works for you!

I don’t know about other people but this is a skill I started perfecting in kindergarten…. Lol😂 I only recently learned this term for it 😮I just called it ‘cutting out pictures’ …. Not that your tips aren’t useful BTW I use my paper cutter to cut out those cut a parts in paper pads to make sure those lines are straight. If the corners are rounded I use a corner rounder. I’m so glad you mentioned those thick white borders on so many stickers!!! I usually cut them off 🤗 Also, I learned early on in my sewing career how to cut pointed & arrowed ribbons by folding them, so just transferred that technique to papercraft. Works very well!
