Green Crafts-How to Recycle Greeting cards and Make Wonderfully Unique Gift Bags
First, use scissors to cut out and remove the front section of a greeting card. Next, attach a small piece of double-sided foam stick tape to the back of your cut out.  You can find this in most craft stores, and sometimes even at the local drugstore. Then, select a solid-colored recycled gift bag so that your embellishment will stand out against the solid color and become a focal point. Now, simply attach your embellishment to the center of the gift bag and hold until foam sticker bonds to the bag.  Depending on the type and size of the greeting card cut out you select, an option would be to punch out a hole through the embellishment. This would allow you to thread a ribbon (ÂÓ inch width or less) through the opening.  You can also personalize your embellishment using a fine point sharpie pen to address a name on it if your embellishment allows enough space to do so.Supplies:
