Effective tools that make scrapbooking easier are appreciated by any cropper -- but are perhaps most appreciated by senior croppers. Here, designer Joy Macdonell shares a tool that makes perfect circle -- without a craft knife or template! Circle Scissor? - Works best with Glass Mat? and re-positionable tape. Tip: To make any tape re-positionable, simple press against clothing, then quickly remove. First, use the tape to secure a photo the mat.
- Next, center the Circle Scissor over the center of the image.
- Then, select the proper size by rotating the disk around the image (figure A) to check placement before cutting.
- Once the correct size is determined, position the blade into the proper cutting hole. Hold blade at a 90-degree angle from the paper. With free hand, hold the Circle Scissor tool firmly against the glass mat. Use other hand to rotate the blade around the circle.
