Tips on Scoring with a Scoreboard

Many people ask why my paper does not crack when I score it and I am going to share my tips with you.

Paper has a memory to be flat and that is how it is made, now as papercrafters we want to change the memory so bend in different ways.
Often paper cracking is down to too much pressure, the wrong tool or digging the tool into the paper instead of letting it glide over the top when scoring.
In the video I show you how to score different types of papers as well as cardstock.
I do hope this quick tip will help many of you over come the problem of cracking paper.

      Hello Richard, may I recommend the Crafters Companion Enveloplus score board https://www.crafterscompanion.co.uk/the-enveloplus-board-scoreboard.html as I think you may find this more useful. It means you can make envelopes of many sizes and depth. I hope this helps? Dawn
