QuestionHow do I cut it straight?Community AnswerYou can fold the paper you're working with and carefully cut along the fold with scissors. Alternatively, you can fold the paper and flatten the fold as much as possible using your fingernail on one side, then open the paper fold the other way and repeat. This will allow you to be able to tear the paper in a straight line along where you folded it.
