Home made Christmas Cards

We have decided to try to not to get caught up in all the commercialism of the festive season this year and make a more sustainable Christmas... here is another thing we have done.

Home made cards - photos printed from our 2010 family snaps and mounted on 100% post consumer recycled card (cut up manila folders as that was all we could find), decorated with more cut up recycled manila folders.  They will be posted out in 100% recycled envelopes.  They look great and we are going to have lots of fun choosing which card we will send to all of our family and friends.

Are you making your own cards?  Or maybe you are choosing where you buy yours from?  Make your choice of cards a more ethical and sustainable one .
