you’ll be dancing in all kinds of circles once you see what the new Cutter Bee® Circle Scissor® Plus can do. You might be thinking, “Why do I need another circle cutter when I’ve got my Coluzzle®?” For some projects, your Coluzzle Cutting System might be the way to go—but you will soon see why the Circle Scissor Plus is also a must-have for your stamping tool kit. And once your customers see it in action, we’re pretty sure they’ll think so, too.
For starters, with the Circle Scissor Plus, all you have to do is turn a handle. The V-shaped blade allows for cutting in both directions, and the gripper base ensures that the cutter stays still. In one fluid motion, the Circle Scissor Plus cuts all the way around your circle. You won’t have to worry about awkward hand placement, templates shifting, the blade jumping
track, or stopping halfway through to reposition.
In addition, the Circle Scissor Plus can cut circles of any size up to six inches. You’re not constrained by increments—you decide the size. It also cuts circles smaller than two inches. On top of that, try it out for cutting rings of any width like we did on our 14 card. When it comes to rings, the Circle Scissor Plus will be with you through thick and thin.
Other important product information for the Circle Scissor Plus:
- Comes with one replacement blade, which stores in the top of the handle.
- Cuts one sheet of card stock or Designer Series paper at a time.
- Has a see-through body that allows for precise photo cutting.
- Includes a pen/pencil tool for drawing circles (works great with Stampin’ Write® markers!).
- Is compact and lightweight for portability.
Let customers know the benefits of purchasing the Circle Scissor Plus from you instead of a craft store. When customers buy it from you, they can come to you with questions and for product expertise. That’s a service your customers won’t get anywhere else.
Tips for Using the Circle Scissor Plus:
- The gripper base is not sized to fully grip the edges of anything smaller than six inches, and you may find your smaller pieces of paper spinning around instead of cutting. To cut paper smaller than six inches, lightly tack it to the glass mat using SNAIL Adhesive®.
- For best results, use with a glass mat. Glass mats allow the blade to “float” across the cutting surface for a cleaner, better cut. (We recommend the Cutter Bee Glass Mat. It provides the smoothest cuts.)
- The Circle Scissor Plus works most smoothly when you’re standing up. This helps distribute the weight and pressure on the cutter evenly, resulting in the cleanest cut and most perfect circle.
- Cutting rings can be a little tricky, but it takes only a little practice to master. When cutting rings, cut the smaller circle, or the center of the ring, first, and then don’t move the cutter! Make sure it stays in place while you adjust the size for the outside circle of your ring, and then cut again. Keeping the cutter in place the whole time is the key to getting radical rings.
