\"image\"<\/a>If you are a parent then you should know that your printer could possibly be your new BFF.  I am kid you not.  We made these super cool ornaments by printing How About Orange’s templates<\/a> of red and yellow paper. <\/p>\n

\"Little<\/a>I have also made papercraft dolls, doll houses and even a Scooby Doo once.  It is a simple craft, all you need is some cardstock and a printer and the patience to use an Xacto knife without slicing your fingers off.  Oh and a cutting mat is nice too.  You could always use scissors and embroidery scissors, but I like the cutting mat and knife method, it is more exact and makes cleaner cuts.<\/p>\n

\"Just<\/a>There are also lots of printables that you can make like this cupcake set, each piece is separate and you can just create pretty paper cupcakes in seconds, I just cover them with transparent plastic sticky paper, so they last longer.<\/p>\n

I also always print on draft mode, so we don’t use too much ink, and I usually print two pages on one and make everything smaller to use less paper, not because I am cheap but because I print out so much stuff, it seems more economical this way.<\/p>\n

You can also print on fabric<\/a>.  Oh yeah, that opens up even more possibilities doesn’t it?<\/p>\n

So go ahead, if you don’t already own a printer go out and buy one and if you do, make it work for you.<\/p>\n
