Emily asked a question when I posted my last circle card:
"I have that same circle cutter. I have trouble using it though. When I try and cut a circle, I feel like the clear plate moves inside the rim a little, and once my circle is cut out all the way, it's slightly distorted so that I can see the start/stop point fairly obviously (to me at least). Any ideas/suggestions on this? I would REALLY appreciate it!!!"

I don't have any secrets Emily, but I have heard if you use repositionable adhesive to keep the paper down on your glass mat, it helps. I don't have any yet and I've been managing ok so far (only the odd boo-boo). I would suggest, if you feel like it's moving, return it and get a new one.
Thanks to Joyce and Sue (and Layne!) for a fabulous class at Scrappers' Anonymous yesterday. Love teaching people crafty stuff! I will be announcing my A-MUSE-A-PALOOZA classes at Crafty Capers and Lasting Impressions soon, so stay tuned!
Thanks for stopping by. I always appreciated it. Have a great week.

I just came across your blog via Jill's, and wouldn't you know it, you teach classes at Lasting Impression stamps - where I worked for 6 or so years! It's a small world.
