✂️ 2. Printing & Assembly
6. What kind of paper should I use?
For the best results, we recommend printing your Papercraftia kit on A4 matte photo paper or cardstock between 150–220gsm. These paper types offer vibrant color output, clean folds, and enough thickness to hold shape during assembly.
Lighter paper (under 120gsm) can be used for practice or simpler builds, but may require extra care when gluing or folding.
7. Can I use regular printer paper?
Yes, you can use standard printer paper (80–100gsm) for simple builds or test prints. However, it may be less durable and more prone to curling or wrinkling when glue is applied.
If you choose to use regular paper, we recommend crayons, colored pencils, or gel pens for coloring to avoid bleed-through. For the best crafting experience, thicker paper such as matte photo paper or light cardstock is ideal.
8. What thickness is best (GSM)?
We recommend using paper with a thickness of 150–220gsm for optimal results.
9. Do I need a color printer?
Not necessarily. Every Papercraftia kit includes both a pre-colored version and a colorable version.
If you prefer to decorate the kit yourself, you can print the colorable version in black and white and use your favorite coloring tools.
However, if you’d like to use the full-color version as-is, a color printer will give you the best results in terms of vibrancy and detail.
10. What if I don’t have a printer at home?
You can still enjoy your Papercraftia kit by printing it through a local print shop or an online printing service. Simply send them the PDF files included in your order and request printing on A4 matte photo paper or 150–220gsm cardstock for best results.
Both the full-color and colorable versions are included in your download, so you can choose whichever style you prefer.
📎 3. Tools & Materials
11. What equipment do I need to make the papercraft?
To complete a Papercraftia kit, you’ll need the following basic materials:
- A4 paper (recommended: matte photo paper or 150–220gsm cardstock)
- Scissors or a craft knife
- White craft glue (such as Elmer’s or school glue)
- Coloring tools (crayons, pencils, gel pens, or markers for the colorable version)
No special tools or machines are required. All kits are designed to be simple, fun, and accessible — even for first-time crafters.
12. What glue should I use?
We recommend using white craft glue, such as school glue or Elmer’s. It dries clear, provides a strong hold, and gives you time to adjust pieces before setting.
For simpler builds or flat parts, you can also use:
- Glue sticks for quick and clean application
- Double-sided tape for crisp, mess-free edges
White glue remains the most reliable option for curved, layered, or more detailed pieces.
13. Can I use tape or a glue stick?
Yes, you can use glue sticks or double-sided tape for certain parts of your build, especially flat or low-stress areas. They’re convenient and mess-free for quick assembly.
However, for stronger holds, curved shapes, or more complex builds, we recommend using white craft glue. It offers better durability and flexibility during assembly.
14. Do I need any special tools or cutting machines?
No special equipment is required. All Papercraftia kits are designed to be printed and assembled with simple household tools.
You’ll only need:
- A printer (or access to one)
- Scissors or a craft knife
- White glue,glue stick, or tape )
Our templates are beginner-friendly and do not require any die-cutting machines like Cricut or Silhouette. Just print, cut, and enjoy!
15. Are scissors enough?
Yes — scissors are all you need to assemble our papercraft kits. Each piece is designed with simple, clean lines that are easy to cut by hand.
For extra precision (especially with small or curved parts), you can optionally use a craft knife or precision scissors, but they’re not required. Every kit is made to be fun and accessible for all ages and skill levels.
🎨 4. Coloring & Customization
16. Do the kits include colorable versions?
Yes! Every Papercraftia kit comes with two versions:
- A fully pre-colored version – ready to print and assemble
- A blank colorable version – perfect for those who want to add their own creative touch
You can choose to build right away or enjoy the relaxing process of coloring your own version before assembling. It’s entirely up to you!
17. What should I use to color them?
You can use a variety of tools to color your papercraft kit, depending on the paper you print on and your personal style. We recommend:
- Colored pencils or crayons for soft, clean shading
- Gel pens for bright accents and fine details
- Water-based markers (on thicker paper) for bold, vibrant color
If you use alcohol-based markers, make sure your paper is at least 150gsm to prevent bleeding or warping.
18. Can I use alcohol markers?
Yes, you can use alcohol-based markers such as Copics or Ohuhus — just make sure to print on thicker paper (at least 150gsm). This helps prevent ink from bleeding through and ensures a smoother coloring experience.
We recommend using matte photo paper or heavy cardstock for the best results when working with alcohol markers.
19. How do I import the files into a digital coloring app?
You can import the colorable version of your Papercraftia kit into most digital drawing or coloring apps such as Procreate, Photoshop, or Medibang.
- Step 1: Download the colorable file from your email
- Step 2: Open your app (like Procreate, Photoshop, Medibang, etc.)
- Step 3: Tap Insert or Import to bring in your coloring page
- Step 4: (Optional) Set the line art layer to “Multiply” to keep outlines visible
- Step 5: Create a new layer underneath the line art and start coloring!
📝 Please note: Only the colorable version is intended for personal customization. The pre-colored original is not editable or to be modified digitally or for resale.
20. Can I add my own designs?
Our colorable versions are perfect for creative customization — you're welcome to add your own colors, patterns, or small personal touches while coloring.
However, please note that:
- The original pre-colored files are not editable and should not be altered
- You may not remove branding, modify core shapes, or reuse templates to create new products or resell in any form
We love when customers personalize their builds — just be sure to use them for personal, non-commercial purposes only.

🌿 10. When Crafting Feels Like Too Much — That’s Okay
46. What if I’m new to papercraft? Can I still enjoy it?
Absolutely! Papercraftia kits are designed to be beginner-friendly, forgiving, and fun — no prior experience needed.
Each kit includes easy-to-cut templates, simple instructions, and a pre-colored version so you can start right away. Whether you're crafting alone, with friends, with kids, or as a cozy family activity, you’ll find it calming, creative, and rewarding — no matter your skill level.

48. What if my colors don’t look good together?
There’s no such thing as the “wrong” color combination — your craft is uniquely yours.
Every build reflects your mood, your style, and your creativity. Even unexpected or playful color choices can make your papercraft feel more personal and special. Sometimes, it’s the quirks that make it meaningful. 🌈
So color freely, experiment boldly, and enjoy the process — not perfection.
49. What if I make a mistake while cutting or gluing?
Mistakes are a natural part of crafting — and completely okay.
If something tears, folds incorrectly, or gets misaligned, you can simply reprint the page and try again. Your kit is a digital download, so you can print it as many times as you need for personal use.
Many builders even embrace little imperfections — they often add charm and personality to the final piece.

Absolutely. Papercraftia kits are designed to be enjoyed at your own pace. You can pause at any time and return whenever you’re ready — whether that’s later in the day, next week, or even next season.
There’s no rush, no pressure, and no “perfect” way to craft. Your kit will be waiting for you whenever you feel inspired again
