We hoard Christmas cards!!
Reasons why...
- They are too pretty to throw away
- The guilt of throwing away overly priced cards from loved ones eats us up in side
- We are determined to recycle them and reuse them in ways unimaginable (unimaginable may be a bit dramatic)

Big sister - I like to break down the greeting cards from years past and turn them into new Holiday cards.

I used double stick tape to adhere the old greeting card image to the new folded card stock

New cards made from old - mission accomplished!

Little sister - She recycles her old greeting cards into gift tags. No picture here but very easy to create. Cut your desired shape, use a hole punch in one of the corners and put a ribbon or piece of yarn through the hole. Attach your gift tag to whatever your hearts desires!
