Christmas With Recycled Christmas Cards From Christmas Past...#1


Before I received by Cricut I loved cards.  I have been recycling Christmas cards for years.  I make tags for my gifts.  Each year when I take the display down I tear off the backs and save the front.  I then cut off the parts that would make a good tag for gifts.
I took card stock and made the basic card, used Christmas paper for the background and then the recycled part of the card.  In the next several days I will be posting more cards that are made from recycled old Christmas Card.  I hope everyone will enjoy these cards and be inspired to recycle old ones.

Paper Quilting (Thanks Mary)

These were inspired by Mary at Cardz TV. I made these a little different than she did.  I used one word on the outside and use the Cricut to cut the word  friends.  I put the sentiment on the inside. I used "Walk In My Garden" to cut the one inch squares and the word "Friends".  This is a all occasion card and could be used for several things.  I enjoyed making this card and be sure and have something to pick up the small pieces. Inside the sentiment reads "Are like quilts a patchwork of warmth and Comfort".
