As promised, here's a tutorial for a Paper&Cake printable (curious how printables, work, see below). 
page from back-to-school pdf (bookmarks)I printed out the Back-to-School pdf file (for a couple of items I re-inserted the full-pattern pages into the printer, then on the other side, printed the notecards, so they're two-sided...super cute). 
double-sided notecard printing
Anyway, I picked one of the more "complex" items, the snack container, just so you could see how truly easy it is to assemble the items, just think how simple invitations, notecards, bunting and cupcake wrappers will be...
1. Print out (double-sided if desired)
2. Cut out along outer edges of design (if you're good with an xacto knife, go for it, but I use scissors).
3. Pre-Score along dotted lines (you can do this with a ball-point pen with the ink removed, even a fork or, if you're fancy, a scrapbooking scoring tool). Pre-scoring makes the folding infinitely easier and the end product look super clean and professional.
4. Fold along pre-scored lines.
5. Using adhesive (ie: tape, double-sided tape or scrapbook adhesive), affix as noted in the instructions.
6. Fill with good stuff. 
Yup, its that easy. For a full party for 12 guests, it takes me about 45 minutes to assemble a complete party (everything from the celebration banner to the cupcake wrappers, the favor boxes to food labels). It took my mom (with scissors and tape) and hour to do her first Paper&Cake printable party!p.s. feeling the need to crate a new felt pattern - should I continue the circus theme, or something totally new? woodland critters, sequined rainbow?...help!!!
It also makes a lovely tablescape on a budget.
Oh, and I almost forgot the best parts...a lovely little advent calendar to hang on your door, a photoframe to send as a holiday card and a DIY wreath!
