Last year I decided to hold on to some of my favorite cards to see what I could possibly use them for the following year. I simply cut the front of the cards and recycled the back part. Now that the Christmas season is upon us, I was excited to go through my box of saved cards.
I had some gifts to wrap and instead of buying Christmas tags or writing on the box, I decided to use my old Christmas cards as tags. A great benefit was it didn't cost me anything and I was able to get about 3-5 different tags out of one card depending on the design.
My friends loved their little tags and were not even aware that they were homemade.
Here's what to do:
1. Find a card that has a nice image or designs
2. Simply cut around the image/design. You can use simple scissors or find one of those crafty ones that cuts in a pattern.
3. Punch a hole at the top
4. String ribbon through the hole...and viola! Easy Peasy!
