I’m one of those people who have a hard time throwing things away! Even old Christmas Cards! I’ve found a way to recycle them that I’m really happy with: Window Cards using last year’s cards.
This was a really FUN project! These are some of my old Christmas Cards, framed using Hearth & Home Thinlits! You can purchase the Thinlits for just $20 and do the same with your cards this year! Here’s some finished cards:
Can’t wait to send this one back to the grandparents!! And the last one isn’t a Christmas Card, but I love the colors & had to show you.
Which one do you like best? Does anyone recognize their card from last year?!! I’d love to hear your comments!
Now go over the the SSINK PAGE to see some more Window Card ideas!

How strange seeing this lovely post,I recently purchased a large window die and still had some of last years Christmas cards left ,some with snowy scenes so I thought they would look fab looking out the window , old cards and window die,a marriage made in my craft room and now I’ve just seen this post it obviously was a great idea but I know some people have done it before but still fab xx

I’m so glad you like this idea!! I have such a tough time throwing away old cards, but hate to just keep them in a box. This year I plan to have a gathering after New Years where everyone recycles their old cards like this!
Wendy says
I cannot find the windows, can you help me?
Cheryl says
Wendy… it’s retired!! So sorry! You might be able to find a substitute, Window Dies would work!
