Paper + Color = Holidays

23 hours ago by jessbcuz

I wrote last time that I was looking at my stashes with an eye toward holiday gifts and activities, and my paper stash was deserving of such a look as well.

Aw, yeah, it’s time for a little Holiday PC! Starting with this cool gingerbread house. Can you see that the railing on that second-floor balcony is made of lollipops? You need to see that detail.
