Glue same shapes back to back. Use glue to trace around edges and along other designs in picture, sprinkle on the glitter to glitz it up. Punch hole in top and add ribbon. Variation: Use canning jar lid ring to trace a circle on card and cut out. Cut same shape out of plain paper, felt or other part of card for back. glue pretty round inside the canning ring and glue the plain back on the outside of ring behind card. glitter up. glue on ribbon.

Donate to a children’s club or program for crafts.

Placemats: Cut out LOTS of rounds or squares of the prettiest parts of cards. overlap them slightly and hold together with double-stick tape. keep putting together until you have an oblong or rectangle-shape/size. Use actual placemat as a guide. Cover with clear contact paper and trim off excess.
