house paper ornament

Having a digital cutting machine makes little creations like this appear in a matter or minutes. This design was something that I've been wanting to make this past week and just didn't have time to do it until today. It now hangs on our tree. Quick projects like these are so fun to work on, that if I had time, I could go on making new ones all day long.

I'll going to cut a few more and let the kids decorate them this afternoon—since we're already short on homework this week (love the break from that!).

Oh the paper... someone made a comment that my projects look so sturdy. For many projects (including my box calendar) I use paper that is thicker than scrapbooking card stock. In this case, I'm using Mr. French paper (100lb cover). I like that it has uneven specks in it and that it's a natural vs bright white.
