What to do with all those Christmas cards?

Day 7 in the new year and I am still tidying up! Today I was faced with a (small) pile of Christmas cards, which are too nice to throw away, but too many to keep. Then I remembered a star-shaped hole-punch, which I had bought for the kids last year. It cuts out stars of about 5 cm diameter. Ideal for recycling Christmas cards.

                                                                             
After a few minutes of punching I now own a heap of colourful card board stars, which I will save for this year's Christmas decorations and gift wrappings.
