As a paper crafter the two banes of my existence are (a) unevenly cut paper and (b) messy paper folds. While I’m still in search of the perfect paper cutter (I already have four different ones), I’ve found the end-all be-all of paper scoring and folding. Let me introduce you to my new best friend, the Scor-Pal.

Ridiculously simple in its premise and super genius in its execution, the Scor-Pal is a heavy 12-inch x 12-inch plastic board with premeasured indentations on its surface. Users simply place cardstock on the board and use a bone folder (included) to press score lines into the cardstock. Every line comes out perfectly straight and crisp every single time. The premeasured lines make scoring boxes, gatefolds, and other complex scored projects so easy. In just seconds, each line is scored and ready to fold. And you can emboss lines, too.

The Scor-Pal is available at its website and other retails for around $39.99.
