Are You Smarter ..... Than Your Scissors?? Than Paper??

**Now taking suggestions for a title to this post!!**

Somewhere on the internet (99% chance it was on Pinterest) I saw a tip about cutting paper.  You know when you (and by you I mean ME!) sit down to trace and cut out a dozen or so hearts?  And you wish you could cut them all out at one time?  And you try it even though you know the paper is going to slide around and you'll end up with two good hearts and a stack of heart disease and you'll have to start all over??

So, the Pinteresting tip was this:  STAPLE IT!  Trace your shape, staple a stack together, and cut 'em out.

IT WORKS!!!  HALLELUJAH!!  Want proof?  I took pictures.  Just for you.  ;)

Trace.....


Staple....


Cut....


Voila!

That stack is three sheets of construction paper.  I wonder how many will work...  hmmm......
