CRAFTING TIP OF THE WEEK (#97) Scoring

Greetings Bloggers!

Today's tip is quick & easy. It relates to scoring.

When scoring one sided paper, flip the paper over to the plain side so you can see your score lines better.
Conversely, if you are scoring double sided paper and want the ability to see the score lines, first use a marker, pen or pencil lightly along the score board then go back with the scoring tool and score over that same line.
Using a writing device will allow you to see the score line better when working with the paper. Sometimes when working with double sided paper it is difficult to see the score line. If you are like me, you may end up even tearing the paper because you might place too much pressure on it while re-scoring.
I have found my solution quite helpful and saved double sided cardstock by using this tip.
I hope you find it useful.
Have a good day!
