Card Cutting Tools

When making cards, good card cutting tools are very important.

Below I have listed some basic cutting tools you will need or
already have to create cards with a neat professional look!

Cutting - Mat

Cutting Mats come in various sizes and are available at any craft stores. Choose one that is big enough for cutting big sized paper. I have a 23inches x 23inches blue mat with measurement squares that I have placed on my work table. It’s a perfect size!

Tip: You might consider purchasing a smaller one for travel
or smaller pieces of paper

Craft Knife / Scissors

Craft knifes and scissors is a must for card cutting tools. Many crafters like myself like to use X-Acto craft knifes. It is great for detailed paper cutting or to cut big sheets of paper

For those who have difficulty handling sharp knifes, I would advise that you use an X-Acto knife that is safer than a surgical scalpel.

Tip: I found out that many crafters go to local medical suppliers
and purchase KAI no. 3 surgical knife and blades, that intend to last
quite some time

Scissors is another type of cutting tool that vary in fancy designs.
It is use for basically all cutting purposes. Use a big pair for cutting
big sheets and use a small sharp one for cutting small, detailed pieces
of work…

Important: Please keep all sharp objects away from children!

Tip: If you don’t have any caps for your knifes use bottle corks.
It will prevent any type of incident

Paper Trimmers / paper Cutters

A paper cutter is another one of my daily cutting tools. It is good for cutting photos, precision cutting and different sizes of paper. I use it to pre-cut big sheets of paper to direct sizes for all my card making.
