I have a collection of tweezers similar to AirDave's collection. I usually prefer the shorter ones with small tips. For very small parts, I'll hold the part with a clamping tweezer and fold & glue it with an ordinary tweezer.

For scribing parts, I tried several tools and what seems to work best is a T-pin with the head cut off, mounted in a hobby blade handle. I keep the handle as close to horizontal as possible; the goal is to compress the surface of the paper rather than to cut it.

And as noted above, scoring is much easier if you do before you cut out the part.
