How to Cut Sections on Your Diamond Painting (Clear and White cover sheets)

Hello crafters! In this video I share how I personally like to section off my diamond paintings. Hope you found this video helpful!
🔹If you're interested in any of the tools I used in this video (the cutting tools, the washi tape, and the light pad) I have them all listed on my Amazon Storefront under Diamond Painting Tools. Here's the link to that: www.amazon.com...

This was extremely helpful! I’m a newbie at diamond painting so I will definitely be using these tips going forward! Thank you!

Yay I’m glad!

Why not just use a ruler?

Omgoodness, you're a life saver! Just started my 1st DAP a few days ago and it was driving me nuts having to constantly keep repositioning the paper minders. Your video was the first to pop up. I just ordered the ceramic knife pen that you're showing, but in the meantime, I used cloth medical tape and an Exacto knife. Yayyy!!! It worked perfectly! And the tape comes off easily when needed. Thank you so much for this VERY helpful tip! 😊

[@KarenisNo1]

That ceramic blade is the cat's meow!! I have been struggling with the thicker clear cover sheet when I use the exacto-blade. Awesome suggestions and tool!!💜💎💜 New Sub and glad I found you😁👍❤

[@EvelynDP]

Awesome! Glad it was helpful!

My diamond painting is coming soon and this is very helpful for me!! THANK U SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO. I'm a newbie on diamond painting world

[@theresakidd]

Thanks so much for doing this video. I was freaking out about how to cut the plastic. Now I have one of the ceramic cutters coming and I feel a lot better now.

[@MoniLynne2008]

I did the razor knife method and it cut right thru the canvas. I wasn’t even using much pressure. I think release sheets are better then potentially ruining your canvas.

[@euscieu4246]

Beautiful nails! Thank you for making this

Just a friendly piece of advice, when peeling the cellophane off I would peel it off in a straight line instead of curving from one corner to the other. That is why in the first example the cellophane began to tear. Good video 👍🏻 🌴☀️🌴

[@julia-mg7yq]

This was very helpful!! Thank you so much!

[@jaydenullman2044]

I actually cut through my canvas with the first one I didn’t know it could cut it but it was an easy fix

[@brittainyellis6670]

Oh no

[@danielscott1749]

Remove the plastic cover , Cut it on a Cutting board/pad . Replace Cover 1/2 the time and you will never cut the Canvas.

[@carriewhite2378]

Came cross your video wanted check it out. I just stated yesterday on my diamond painting. Thanks for the info.

[@ArticOwl22]

Life changing for real! thank you!!!

[@chelsiesdiamondsandbooks]

I cut through an 80$ canvas with exacto knife and I know a few other people who have also. I messed up when the blade got switched to a new one because my usual amount of pressure cut right through. I guess I'd been using a pretty dull blade before.

[@EvelynDP]

Oh noooo! 💔💔

[@SapphireeCos]

I cut through the diamond painting I wanted to do for my mum. Now I learned my lesson and I'm more careful with it now..

[@georgier9029]

@@SapphireeCos I did the same! I was doing a photo of my gran for my mums birthday and cut straight through her face! After I stopped crying for a hour, I managed to tape and clue the back to hold it together and then use the diamonds to hold the front together and disguise the cut! This was only last week! :(

You can also use a seam ripper for clear cover, to devide your section.

[@EvelynDP]

Wow I've never heard of using a seam ripper! Thanks!

[@joyurquhart]

Thank you for this. l like how you only cut one area at a time so the rest of the cover stays intact

[@maryannseiber721]

I like that ceramic knife.

[@EvelynDP]

Me too! So easy to use

Beautiful hands 👌💙💙

[@tamaraj4200]

Can scissors work as I am not a fan of knifes. I have a brand new pair that are small.

[@nessiebwur]

I use scissors to cut sections off my canvas, so yeah! As long as you make sure you’re cutting the cover paper and not the canvas, you should be good. I plan on getting a ceramic blade of my own soon, though

What should I do if I get blu tack on my canvas? Love your videos

[@EvelynDP]

I usually pick it off with my nail or with tweezers the best that I can. Sometimes it doesn’t come off all the way but the drill ends up covering it

[@rafidthegamer470]

Can you use a box cutter to cut through one? ^^

[@malfoydddd3623]

Thank you

[@kmcfarland81]

What do you use to cover up the drills once you have finished a section? Thanks 😊

[@kee-tu4cq]

Once the drills are on a section you don’t need to cover it with anything as the sticky part is covered with the drills.

[@Fabse12345]

Hey! Do you use blue tack or wax in the multiplacers? :)

[@EvelynDP]

I usually use blue tack in my 4 placer and pink wax in my 10 placer ☺️

[@Ang030]

could you use a knife depending how sharp it is?

[@Madelinemakes_]

Is it easier to cut the white paper cover than the clear cover with the exacto knife?

[@EvelynDP]

I think so!

[@ziche.]

i use something sharp to mark a section so i can use the scissors to cut it, the mark can still be seen so its a guide 😄

[@EvelynDP]

Oh nice 😂😂

[@specialk8927]

Are those press on nails because you can see I in nder your nails like it's coming off

[@tayyibahrahman9876]

I’m a kid and umm can I try kinda sharp scissors

[@tayyibahrahman9876]

Pls answer

[@EvelynDP]

Great question! You can try using one side of the scissors to slice the cover sheet - this might work better with the white cover sheets. You can also try just lifting the cover sheet and cut it like paper!

I just plied back the plastic cover and took scissors to cut section, leaving 1 side attached so I can close it again.

[@sydneyblackwell4631]

I um I accidentally took off my film and threw it away any tips?😅

I know this is an older question but you can either use double sided parchment paper (NOT wax), or if you have double sided release papers.

[@danielscott1749]

That is 1 minute of information stretched over 12 minute A Suggestion Edit your Script before shooting. You can remove the Whole plastic cover after tapping or marking it how ever, then cut it on a cutting board then replace the cover. quicker , easyer, and you will never Damage the Canvas
