Cars for Tree

Ok - so every year I suggest that people go out and 'make their own MINI' from the website:www.papercars.net
and looks like this year is no exception!

We traditionally decorate the tree at the Christmas Party with these MINIs and need some help filling up the tree!  We gave several away the first year and some were destroyed one year, so now we'd like some help again in making some for this year's tree.  

You can customize it anyway you want - vary the color of the body and roof, add checks, stripes, whatever suits you!  Sorry, no Clubman, Countryman, or Convertible models available....., but feel free to improvise!  Also, if you do it in white, you can design your own scheme.

There's a how-to page as I recall and we did come up with a few tips that I will try to post.  First and foremost, you'll want to print them on a card stock weight paper.

Good luck and here's a picture of the first tree:
