Kick ass holiday cards

First
Get old art magazines (often free on cl or the local street corner)


Next
Decoupage (glue) them on to your card and dress them up with old sequins and such.
Let it dry really well.











Then 
Trim out the hanging decoration with an xacto knife leaving a tiny bit attached at top and sides.










Voila! Write something nice and card specific, add a hook or ribbon to the envelope and
you are done! Unique meaningful card out of recycled materials and some glue.

Materials List
  • Heavy Paper - any will do even grocery bags (recycle folks!)
  • Old books and magazines
  • Glue
  • Paint (optional)
  • Old sparklies (often salvaged from clothing or at the center for creative re-use)
  • hooks or ribbon for hangin’
