Get Closer to Professional Quality: Make Your Own Paper Items with the Full Utilization of a Corner Cutter!

Do You Know About Corner Cutters?

Have you ever used a stationery item called a "corner cutter"?

A corner cutter is a cutter that can easily round the corners of paper or laminated materials.

You can use it similarly to a punch to remove the sharp edges of paper.

Rounding the corners gives a more polished look, making it an essential item for DIY paper items!

The atmosphere changes significantly depending on whether you use a corner cutter or not.

When the corners are rounded, it gives a gentle impression, as if a little extra care has been taken.

(In fact, it does require some effort, and even when requesting from a printing company, there is an additional fee for rounding the corners.)

For example, here is a complete set of invitations.

The invitation card, RSVP postcard, and sticky notes all use a corner cutter.

Although it's handmade by the bride, the quality looks like it was ordered!

Of course, the original design is stylish, but having the corners rounded adds a "professional feel"♡
