Post-Christmas craft

Don't throw away all these Christmas cards!

For years, my friend Suzanne has been sending a most appreciated gift to a few lucky ones one month prior to Christmas: hand-made gift tags, made out of recycled cards.

The funny thing is, my friend is an architect with a big job. Not exactly the kind of person you'd imagine crafting gift tags. But it's her way to relax. First she harvests all the cards she can at her workplace (after the holidays). Then, later in the year, equipped with scissors, glue, ribbons and a glass of wine (I assume!), she recycles the cards into something really cute and useful.

Good idea, isn't it?
