I'd suggest printing the first 5 pages of the PDF on 250gm matte photo paper, and the next 4 on lighter weight matte photo paper, then printing the backing sheet on the reverse of those previous 4.

I printed everything on 250gm, but was wishing the embellishments were lighter weight and two-sided so I didn't have to be concerned about white showing.

This kit is an engineering marvel! The tutorial is very complete, and you can use this to make just a treat box, or a standing birdhouse, or a hanging one like I did.

Things I learned for the next one: the paper tips already mentioned, and definitely using the backing paper on the embellishment sheets, and next time, I'll cut the tabs off the inner birdhouse liner to make it easier to score, fold and construct the house.

There are so many options included with this kit, and you could easily make some cards with the backing paper and leftover embellishments.

I added just some tiny pine cones, ribbon, a few paper flowers, "jewels", and glitter from my stash.

This makes a wonderful, large decoration and so much fun to make.
