I sort of feel like I have gone to the dark side since now I cut out all my materials with a Cricut. It still makes me feel guilty.

So here is my most recent little house. I call it the "Spring Blossom Fairy House". I wrote all about it on my blog - https://paperglitterglue.com/spring-blossom-fairy-house-miniature-paper-fairy-house/

I wrote the full tutorial (and free pattern) on my blog if you would like to see how I made it.

No shame in using the tools you own. I would call you smart. Keep up the great work.

So cute! I'll have to check out your blog post. My 6 year-old daughter and I have been making lots of fairy houses during stay at home orders here in San Diego.
