Tools of the trade

I’m using lots of easy materials for this project, so I can keep the tools quite simple. Here’s the essentials.

Tools of the trade
  1. Cutting mat. This one’s seen better days – but essential for making accurate cuts and protecting your table
  2. Steel rule. A good straight edge when cutting, and handy for measuring
  3. Craft knife. Sharp blades that can be replaced. This one has different blades including chisel tip that can be slotted in.
  4. Scribing tool. Basically a sharp spike. Great for adding texture into materials and making half-cuts when folding card.
  5. Small scissors. These are nail scissors I use exclusively for crafts. The tiny size helps when cutting small details.

In addition to this, PVA Woodglue – neat and in a dilute mix, and superglue are also essential.
