My love of Fiskars started when I was growing up, and was instilled by my Mom. For as long as I can remember Fiskars has always been the only brand of scissors she will buy. As a scrapbooker I'm so glad they offer such a large variety of tools that I love just as much as their scissors! I was so thrilled to be asked to create this layout using Fiskars awesome products!
