I had a custom clip request to scissor some cereal boxes along with a small plushie. Since this was a first for me to scissor cereal boxes i was not sure what to expect. Crazy crunching sounds, popping, and not to mention a workout. as the boxes flatten its harder to squeeze but in order to keep that "crunching" noise going you have to squeeze and squeeze til there is no more sqeezing left. whew... my legs doing this. in a good way of course ;)
