Hawaiian card
Tropical Hawaiian card created by Julia H.

Many greeting cards end up being thrown away, so it is better to make these out of recycled material just in case.  Personally, I do not throw away my greeting cards, and I hope that the cards I make for others are treasured.  However, what can I do if people throw away the cards I give them?   Do not pay money for a piece of paper that may just be thrown into a landfill when you can create a beautiful handrawn card on recycled paper.  The added bonus may be your friend will be think twice about a card you lovely crafted with your own hands.  Just look around your house and find some old printer paper for this project.  Also, make sure you are not folding an important document into a card, which may result in a great deal of trouble down the line. The slideshow below will demonstrate how I made this fun recycled card.
