Lint-free Cloth: (1) for dusting off your cutter and cleaning pinch wheels and grit shafts
Awl or Paper Piercer (or other sharp pointed tool): (1) to pick or lift out a test cut to verify results
Stabilizers: A stabilizer is an adhesive material that is applied to the bottom of the material you are
cutting so that cleaner cuts can be achieved. The stabilizer works in one or more of the following ways –
(1) provides firmer contact with the cutting mat (2) provides a final layer that does not need to be cut if
the stabilizer will be removed after cutting (3) prevent some slightly-elastic materials from being
stretched by the blade. Recommended stabilizers include freezer paper, Thermo-web Heat n’ Bond,
and Steam-a-Seam 2.
Double-sided Tape: (1) For securing metal tags or charms to the cutting mat for engraving
Non-slip Shelf Liner: (1) To place under cardstock and other material when embossing
