    Our Artist in Residence answers your questions
    Q: Michelle asks: "What scissors do left-handed people use?"
    A: I have used the red-handled Fiskars scissors for years - I actually have 3 pairs now! I recently broke a pair, and was thrilled to have them replaced very quickly by Fiskars, as all their products are guaranteed for life. My other favorites are the Tim Holtz mini snips from Tonic - they are nice for fussy cutting and small corner cuts.
     
    Feedback From Past Tutorials
    Cristena has a tip for mailing a Double Pop-Up Card: " I mail heavier cards in clear envelopes (so they will be hand-cancelled) - I pay a little more postage and my cards don't get wrecked by the machines."
