    Thanks for sharing! I love my fiskars trimmer and did not know they made a titanium replacement blade. Thanks for a chance to win the scissors.

  7. Marlo says:

    What a great giveaway.. I’ve been wanting to try the Tim Holtz scissors especially since you rave about them all the time 🙂

  8. Thanks for the info about the titanium replacement blades. I had given up on my Fiskars trimmer because I was having to replace the blade so often. I bought a guillotine trimmer, which I like for making the big cuts such as cutting my paper down to 5.5×8.5 for card bases. But for the tiny cuts, I still prefer the Fiskars trimmer. It’s nice to know they changed to titanium blades…I will be getting some!

  9. Michelle W says:

    Thanks for this Jennifer! I didn’t know there were titanium replacement blades for my trimmer, I’m going to have to get some! And I ALMOST bought the Tim Holtz scissors recently… now you’ve piqued my interest again. 😉

  10. I LOVE my Tim Holtz Scissors and have three pairs…I also high recommend them. I have never tried Fiskars, but I can say I love the Fiskars Trimmer and use the same one that you recommend! Fantastic!!

    I would LOVE to win a pair of Tim Holtz and Fiskars scissors!

  47. Can I just say I love when you do this! I was so hesitant about buying a pair of the Tim Holtz scissors. They just looked so huge and bulky and I was used to tiny little scissors. Well I bought them and I wasn’t a fan at first then I did all that cutting last year for the Hero boards and I fell in love!!! I won’t fussy cut with anything but these now. They are my kids favorites too. I need about 10 pairs in this house to satisfy every ones needs. You can hear daily “Where are mom’s awesome red scissors”! lol

    So THANK YOU for being so fabulous and taking the time out of your very busy life to share your favorite products with us year after year. Love you.

  50. Edna Burgess says:

    Oh my, don’t know where to begin. I love my Tim Holtz scissors also but couldn’t get along without my Fiskar paper cutter as think I use it almost every day. Love all my die cutting shapes too. Could go on and on but that gives you an idea. Edna B.
