This morning I started to take down my decorations, including all the Christmas cards with my friends' baby photos and I wasn't sure what to do with them. I could throw them away or save them for next year. But then it occurred to me, I could use them to make great gifts for my friends.
I hit an after-holiday sale at the mall and bought some little photo albums. I'm going to make one photo album for each mom and put her Christmas card in it every year. Then I'll present her with the album containing all her Christmas photos in oh, say, ten or 18 years! I just hope the same people keep sending me cards!
How about you? What do you do with all of your old holiday cards?

I cut the pic out of there or words and gift tags they look really cute!!!
well i would not use the ones with photos on them but I do this with regular cards
I just put all the cards in a box. I have years of cards saved from all occasions. I love looking back on them. The oldest cards with little notes from my mom or someone special are great.
Send them to St Judes Ranch - they recycle them

My mom used to make small stuffed santas and she cut out faces from christmas card santas to put on them
I save all my Christmas cards and put them out every year. I love to see the funny ones that made me laugh on past Christmases. One day I'll find a creative way to display them, but It just seems wrong to throw them away
You can make placemats for next year using old Christmas Cards. You can also use Christmas cards as postcards next year providing the picture side is not written on on the opposite side. And, of course, you can make your own scrapbook of your Christmas memories with friends and family through the years.
One year I use Christmas Cards as is on my tree. I just hole-punched the folded top corner and added a bow to hang it on the tree. Many people enjoyed my tree even more because they were looking through the cards and reading them. I was thinking about doing this again next year. It will add fullness to a skimpy artificial tree too.
I throw mine away...well, recycle them acutally.
