Stark raving bonkers?

Now before you think I am by posting photos of Christmas cards....all will be revealed. After reading this tip here, I decided to have a go myself.

Take a pile of Christmas cards (don't throw them in the recycle bin just yet).....

.....then take a pair of very retro looking pinking shears :D

.....aren't they lovely, they are quite heavy but nice and sharp.

Then have a rummage in a box of pretty ribbon and cut accordingly.......

After cutting all your cards up into smaller squares and rectangles, hole punch one hole in the top left or right corner, thread through ribbon and feed back through loop, pull tight and you have.......

.....lots of lovely gift tags ready for next year.

Now put them somewhere safe (not too safe mind or you might not find them til after next Christmas ;) like me with the cards this year).
