CPG 2025 Recycled Holiday Card Surprise - US

This is a US swap.

1 partner and 2+ paper surprises using your upcycled holiday cards you received or have leftover.

Get creative - your surprises (each should be different so don't send two of the same items) could be as simple as holiday gift tag but other ideas include:

• mini envelope or gift card holder
• fancy bookmark
• mini or full size notecard and envelope
• diy paper strip ornament (send flat and your partner can assemble:)
• flat ornaments
• mini matchbook
• filled paper pocket
• mini junk journal
• paper cluster
• etc

Your surprises should be flatish (however if you are feeling inspired and don't mind mailing an extra ounce or even a bubble mailer, feel free!) and on the smallish side - atc/atc coin or business card size and embellish them a bit so it's not just a piece of cardstock from the front cover of the card. Use stickers, washi tape, stamped image, ribbons, sequins, weaving, sewing, etc.

Please send your very best work! Senders choice. If you are on Instagram, post a pic with the hastag #cpgswap.
