Materials

Recycled Christmas cards, glue, glitter

What was your inspiration?

I couldn't bring myself to toss the beautiful cards I received each Christmas and this was a way to keep part for myself and send back part to the giver.

What are you most proud of?

That most people receiving this were excited to get it.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Lay out all cards to get a good mix of light and dark. I didn't on some of mine and they weren't as nice. If you use a clear or transparent template material you can position on key parts of the card.
