Just restrung, have a nasty buzz, help!

So I have a Raimundo 130 classical that I just restrung a couple of days ago, and now there is this weird buzz on some of the strings (notably the low E, A, and G, but I've also heard it on the D and B) that I've never had before that is perplexing me. The problem starting soon after I restrung it. When I first put the strings on and tuned the guitar and played a bit, there was no problem, but after a few hours in the case I picked it back up and the buzz was there, and over the last couple of days it's come back a couple of times. I found that usually I can fix it by fiddling with the string on the bridge, sliding it around slightly, but just now I tried that and it didn't work for my G... This is the second time I've strung the guitar on my own, so for all I know I could have screwed up somewhere, but the first time I did it (a month or two ago) I had no problems. The only difference between this time and last time is the type of string (I just put normal tension Pro-Artes...I had high tension Pro Artes last time), and this time I put a small folded piece of paper in the nut slot for the A and low E...my teacher does this and told me it reduces the hum (since my guitar tends to hum on those two when I play the B and high E strings). I thought the paper was causing the buzzing at first, but there's also buzz on the other four strings, so I don't think that's it. Any help would really be appreciated!
