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.
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!✂️👍🏻
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.
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!
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.
Great tips....one question? If I sent you all the things I'd like fussy cut, how soon could you have it done?...Hahahaha! Seriously, this was wonderful & I learned a couple of new tips that will help! Thanks for sharing! 💕
I almost passed up this video, even though I know that you are the fussy cutting Queen! I learned so much! I have been fussy cutting more, and have been frustrated more than once. 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!
Lots of awesome tips! Loved seeing the cutting close up! We get our scissors and knives sharpened. My fabric scissors I have had them sharpened. It is more cost effective.
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!
I’ve been fussy cutting for years but picked up some good tips here especially slanting the scissors! Also the tips for cutting the leaves and stems - I’ve always tried to cut those too close and they go very delicate and usually fall apart! Thanks for another great video.
Ms Alberts thank you for sharing this knowledge and techniques. I just started crafting. Cutting is my weakness as I am left-handed.I find it difficult but your video helped me understand what fussy cutting is and thank you for pointing out that it doesn't have to be perfect. Thank you so much. New follower here ❤️. Stay well
Welcome! My daughter is a crafter as well and a lefty. She finds it easier with her hand on it's side as well, so give it a go and see if that helps! It seems to put less stress on my arm. Glad it was helpful!
These are good tips. I almost passed by this video also but decided to watch. I have never been good at fussy cutting. You explain things so well. Thanks.
This is the first of your videos that I watched. I will be watching more. Thank you so much for teaching such creative ways of making the most of my paper. I loved it
I especially loved the tips on cutting tags and banners. I always struggle with tags, and I’m trying that tip. Now I know not to cut to the edge of the scissors. Thanks so much for another great video!
thank you, just loved this video. I have stayed away from fussy cutting because I thought is was soooo difficult, but you have shown me a new way, thank you.
Laura when I first started fussy cutting for decoupage this was 20 plus years ago, in South Africa before fancy scissors....we used to use a little curved cuticle scissors for the fussy bits.... thanks for your clear and precise videos , i always enjoy them...
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.
VERY helpful!!! Thank you! Now my fishtail banners will actually look like fishtail banners instead of wonky strips that look like they had a fight with the scissors and lost,,,,badly, LOL
Wow, wow, wow! You have taught me so much in this great video!! Fussy cutting really is in the details. I’m making notes to help me remember your tips. Thank you!
Subscribed, I do a lot of fussy cutting. I’m a card maker and scrapbooker. However, even with so much “practice “ I’m not good at it 🙄. After watching your video I can see why. Thank you SO much for sharing your skill, tips, and tricks!! I’m definitely going to use them all 😊 Thank you again ❤
So glad to have you! I have learned a lot about cutting from teaching my kids. Two are lefties and it required me to pay close attention to how I cut in order to show them on the opposite hand. Everything takes practice, but it helps when you have a guide helping yoi too!
I hope this was helpful! I've had a lot of requests for tips and tricks to make fussy cutting easier. Ultimately, it does take some practice, but also I find it incredibly relaxing when you don't pressure yourself to be perfect.
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!
Wow, you have made my day!! Fussy cutting is not my idea of fun, but I believe I moved my shears instead of the paper and I did not hold then at an angle. I am going to try fussy cutting now since I have your instructions and let you know!!!
Thanks for this. I get so frustrated with ephemera packs with the large white borders and not having enough of the images I really like, but I have dreaded the thought of fussy cutting. Your tips make it feel more manageable and something I am willing to try. I am about to retire so saving money and still having embellishments I like will be a good thing.
I hear you! Those thick white borders on ephemera make me crazy too! I try very hard to keep my pages economical and fussy cutting really helps me do that.
It definitely helps to see more clearly where you are cutting, especially in tight spots! I enjoy it and I think more people would if they could find easier ways to do it!
Oh my! I am so happy I stayed up late and watched this video! Thanks for all the tips, as a visual learner, this was just what I needed. I am not sure I have the patience for the small detailed cutting, however, I can really use the info on larger projects. I so appreciate watching you work.
You are doing a very nice job of cutting them out. I just wanted to let you know that my sister and I have used the nail scissors. They are very small and curved, but they work well on cutting small things, and small curves. Sometimes you take them off your fingers and turn them they other way for curves going the other way.
no wonder I dislike fussy cutting. I have been doing it wrong this whole time!! your tips are fantastic. You are the queen of fussy cutting!! And to think, I almost didn't watch this video. You rock girl!
Thank you very much, Michele! I'm so glad it was a helpful video, when I had a few requests for this tutorial, I wasn't really sure I had much to say. As I sat down to plan it out, I discovered things I didn't even notice I was doing that made it much easier for me to cut as much as I do!
I love this video Laura. Have always enjoyed cutting and your tips will enhance my enjoyment. Watching you has inspired me to cut some old favourites that I have enjoyed having but never found a use for. You are awesome ❤️
Thank you, Mary! I'm so glad it was helpful! Fussy cutting really changed my style of scrapping and I think it's a huge part of what renewed my love in it too!
This is awesome!! Thank you so much for posting a super explanatory video that no one else has! I was clueless as how to attempt fussy cutting. Everyone talks about it but no one has ever explained how to do it. I'm fairly new to scrapping and I feel like sometimes the assumed knowledge is hard to overcome. You have my sincere thanks! 😊
I'm so glad it was helpful, Rebekah! It was requested by a few friends on here and I was happy to oblige! I fussy cut quite often and have picked up a few tricks along the way that I thought would be useful for others. You're so right, often scrappers who have been at this hobby for quite a while forget that not everyone understands their lingo and techniques!
I'm so glad it was helpful, Jamie! I've been fussy cutting as long as I've been scrapbooking and love it! I find the techniques I use make it so much easier to get clean cut pieces and avoid hand fatigue.
I've done fussy cutting a bit in the past. This video is a game changer and I know I will be doing much more fussy cutting going forward. The tip that changed it the most for me...Tip the scissors blades to better see where I'm cutting. I was doing some cutting last night and that single change made it SO much easier and allowed me to feel much more in control.
Golly you have so many great tips for fussy cutting. I remember when first hearing the words fussy cutting thinking what the heck. It is exactly that lol! Love saving $ for embellishments and some of the papers are awesome. Thanks for another fantastic video. We def need to get you a crown 👑 for the fussy cutting queen 👸 !!
Laura I've watched quite a few videos on fussy cutting. This one is absolutely the most useful one I've ever seen. First time I have ever finished a video on this topic & I feel like I can do a decent job with it.
Awesome video Laura, I have not been a fussy cutter, but as I look for embellishments, I am learning to cut and punch. I was strolling the the few isle of HL, and found some beautiful PP on the sale rack, I thought oh I would never us that, then I thought fussy cut, it is making beautiful flower, also got a small round punch and a piece of nice card star with stars, and now I will have stars... endless ideas!!!
Hi Laura OMG This was so interesting. I really enjoyed your share about fussy cutting paper & Ephemera....it was awesome!! I don't really love to fussy cut so I do have a Brother Scan N Cut2 and use that to fussy cut papers with lots of embellishing on them or if I stamp an image and don't have a die but I'll do lots and just have the BSNC do a Big Fussy Cutting job!! You really are an Impeccable fussy cutter and it was fun seing you do it!!! Thanks for all the Tips & Tricks share!! YOU so ROCK!! Joan Smith
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!
Thank you so much for all the tips. I found them to be very helpful. I enjoy fussy cutting, it's relaxing to me. Your tips will make it more so. Have a blessed evening and stay safe. 😊❤
Yes I was fuzzy cutting while watching the video. The tag thing , wonderful , water color floras and last but not least those crazy stems. Now I practice ! Thanks so much Laura this helped me alot .
I cut my banners like you cut your tags, by folding and snipping, but haven’t thought of that for tags!!🤪🤪 the snip is just the other direction!!😂😂 Thanks Laura, awesome video!
I'm so glad it was helpful, Ellen! I do a LOT of fussy cutting and I do find that these techniques help me to get a cleaner cut and don't wear out my hands as quickly!
Great video!! Thank you for sharing all of the tidbit information. Now they say however that "Patience is key" hahaha thinking I was the only one who cut off the tiny bits vs tidbits. Something else has to relax you to put you in such a state of relaxation. Curious to know how and what everyone listens to whilst meditating on paper cutting/trimming/fussy cutting or do you start to get impatient. At what point does anyone start to get impatient?
Glad it was helpful, Magdalena! Patience is definitely the key with fussy cutting! I like to put on RUclips videos and watch tv when I fussy cut, just to listen to more than anything else. I also have ADHD, so I like having my hands busy while doing something else.
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.
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!
@@lauraalbertscrafts §
Exactly
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!✂️👍🏻
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.
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.
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!
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.
I'm glad it was helpful! Cutting can be a challenging skill to learn, some of my kids struggled with it too.
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.
Yes! I find fussy cutting incredibly relaxing and focusing on the details is so soothing for my mind. Thanks for watching!

I'm so glad this was helpful, Anne! It was a much requested video and I really enjoyed making it!
A pair of mens bathroom scissors for triming nose hair are great for fussy cutting some things because they have a slight curve.
I’m just glad I learned the technical term for what happens to the paper if you cut all the way down the scissors…. You get a “schnip”😂
Lol, glad to be of assistance. Watch out for those schnips!
Lots of awesome tips! Loved seeing the cutting close up! We get our scissors and knives sharpened. My fabric scissors I have had them sharpened. It is more cost effective.

I cut my banners like you cut your tags, by folding and snipping, but haven’t thought of that for tags!!🤪🤪 the snip is just the other direction!!😂😂 Thanks Laura, awesome video!
So glad it was helpful! True! You could definitely do banners the same way and it would work!

Great tutorial Laura! Thank you for sharing! :)
Thank you, Kelly! I really enjoyed making this one, fussy cutting has a special place in my crafty heart!
Great video!! Thank you for sharing all of the tidbit information. Now they say however that "Patience is key" hahaha thinking I was the only one who cut off the tiny bits vs tidbits. Something else has to relax you to put you in such a state of relaxation. Curious to know how and what everyone listens to whilst meditating on paper cutting/trimming/fussy cutting or do you start to get impatient. At what point does anyone start to get impatient?
Glad it was helpful, Magdalena! Patience is definitely the key with fussy cutting! I like to put on RUclips videos and watch tv when I fussy cut, just to listen to more than anything else. I also have ADHD, so I like having my hands busy while doing something else.
Great tips!
Thank you, Lynette! I'm so glad it was helpful!
