Don't Throw Away Those Old Christmas Cards or any cards

Ideas to use those cards


**Bookmarks**

The larger cards make great bookmarks. We cut the cards into strips of 6 - 7 inches long by 2 inches wide. You can adjust as needed. In the picture above I made on 3 1/2 by 6 inches since it had one large design. I then punched a hole at the top of the strip and tied ribbon and/or string to the top. I made two bookmarks out of one birthday card above. The book mark on the right hand side was already sent as a bookmark.

**Gift Tags**

Why pay for gift tags when you can make your own!! Use a marker to write "To:", and, "From:". You can hole punch like I did or just tape to a package.
