Recycle your Christmas Cards

Now that the food has been consumed, the dishes are done, the decorations have been packed and the tree put away, it is time to go through all the lovely Christmas cards you received this year (or maybe the ones you never dealt with last year).  First, update your address list, because that is important and you don't want to lose track of your family, friends or passing acquaintances.  Then decide what you are going to do with the cards 'cause it would be a shame to throw them out.

If you want to make something for next Christmas...

 Or help a charity...




Whatever you decide, have fun!

Love,
Buddy

Christmas Cards

One of my favorite parts of the holiday seasons is hearing from the far-flung friends and family who send cards and letters.  I love the annual "catch-up" letters where every good thing that happened all year gets chronicled.  They are ever so much better if read out loud to a group (a couple of bottles of wine couldn't hurt) with an English accent in Shakespearean style.

The first "official" Christmas card.  Read all about it here.







Even though these are the "holy days"; a time of spiritual reflection, sharing, and giving, a bit of funky and fun can be incorporated in gifts and cards.

 Funny site with a bit of quirkiness.
Five downloadable cards, & link to a commercial site.










 A commercial site with more than just Christmas cards.

Commercial site with stickers, labels and more.

Commercial site, all kinds of cards from business to personal.

Links to free e-cards sites and American Greetings.
















Get into the spirit and start writing those letters.

Love,
Buddy
