Also, i would b using it 4 scrapbooking.

The circular pizza type cutters are very nice. The other option is a hobby knife. If you want to go mad then buy a scalpel blade from a drug store and fit it in the hobby knife. We did that in school. A normal trim knife and a steel ruler also works.

Any of the 12" trimmers that you can get at the store do fine. It's good to get one that has replaceable blades that you can replace when they dull. You can scour the newspaper for coupons as Joann's and Michael's have them often and then you can save money that way.

I have 3 12" trimmers. My favorite of the bunch is a big, bulky Fiskars one. It has a large "deck" where they paper rests on - bigger than a 12" x 12" sheet of paper and the arm that holds the blade is made of metal. I prefer this one over the others because the ones with the plastic track can bend slightly when cutting and make your cuts off. This can be annoying at times but I can usually rectify it by making another cut to clean it up but just want you to be aware of that. Not a big deal, but it happens.

I have a separate trimmer that I use for cropping photos. I have a Creative Memories one and it's great. It's nice to have a separate one because photos dull blades quickly. Here is a link to show the one I use for them, it's the "Personal Trimmer": http://www.creativememories.com/MainMenu...
(FYI: Creative Memories is a direct sales company, so you have to find a consultant in your area.)

Good luck.

I have a 12" old gray Fiskars trimmer. I love it and couldn't scrap without it. I hear lots of complaints about them, but whenever I got to a crop, what is everybody taking out of their crop bag? Yep...the old gray Fiskars trimmer. This one's blue, but the same thing.

I also have the green Cutterpede, but don't like it as much. My hubby uses it to cut his door hangars that he makes as ads for his business. Again, this one's now blue, but same thing.

You should be able to get both, or at least one or the other, at Joanns, Michaels, or even Walmart.
