Big Score Review

Hello Crafters !

Hope you are OK. I bought the Big Score a while ago , a huge scoring board, big enough to score A3 paper. It's a solid strong piece and a great addition for any crafter's space. Easy to use. I love it because of the measurements, double sided inches or cm.

At first I thought I didn't need another scoring board, but OMG! I absolutely love my Big Score. I really like the fact that you can make bigger projects and it's so easy. I highly recommend this!

You can also look up Crafters companion on youtube for amazing projects and inspirations.

Here some of my projects using the Big Score.

Little Treat Box

Hi Crafters !
I hope you are well ☻ Today's project is a little treat box, perfect for party favors and little gifts. It's so easy  to make !

I used the stunning Softly Falling centura pearl printed cardstock with my template. I folded it with the Big Score and I assembled the piece by using the tacky glue and finally  I added some decorations. The beautiful sentiment is from the Crafter's Inspiration Magazine CD.
Hope you like it ♥
