3D Stars in Paper for July 4th

I continue to explore the world of 3D paper projects and am working hard at figuring out how to best share my cutting files with the world.  I have shared my new website with you at 3dcuts.com. This week I put up some new star designs for folks to make.  Here are a collection of stars I've made already.

There is a nifty twist to the designs. There are four individual star files....

Star 1

Star 2

Star 3

Star 4

But if you put Star 1 parts together in a different way.........

And if you combine star 1 parts with star 3 parts something new happens...........

All these files are available at 3dcuts.com along with my Tree of Stars from last year and the shadow box star.

Thinking about how I will display them as Independence Day decorations. I am wondering how they will hold up on my porch. It is protected from the rain but they are only paper.
