    I can’t scrap w/out glue lines. They are seriously my “go to” adhesive. They work on everything!

    Sounds like everyone agrees that a good paper trimmer is really important. I also can’t scrap without one – I actually use 2, one for my pictures and one for large paper.

    I am with you – a ruler (but I usually just need one – well that is not quite true it is sometimes two when I loose one under the pile while I scrap)

    I have to say my trimmer because it has all my markings on it and I can not do a layout unless I have MY trimmer. If I forget it at home when I go to a crop, I must either 1) borrow one just like mine or 2)go home and get it.

    I guess my one can’t scrap without it item would be the paper cutter. The old fashioned kind with the big heavy handle that I’m always afraid will drop down and chop off a finger! I can’t seem to get a nice sharp edge on the papers I cut without it!

    Fun thing this bean chase! Ok, I cannot scrap without my handy dandy graph paper…I have a huge piece under my project I am working on and I use it to line up everything and to measure where to cut etc…its sorta my ruler, but not so precise! I forgot it at my last crop and lets just say I was not only lost but crooked as well! LOL!
