... once the season is over?

do you keep them and if you do how do you store them?

just curious what the majority does.

mine just end up in a stack in a basket and continue to pile up. I need to figure out something to do with them though.

I have to admit that I throw them away. Eeek. I save the pictures/info sheets people send with their cards, but even those only last in my house for a month. I tend to be way too good at throwing stuff out. :]

I keep mine, put them away with the xmas decorations and pull them out to look at again the next year.

Then I keep the photo ones and the homemade ones. And ditch the rest.

But they would be good for holiday crafting...and I like the Ali idea.

I keep a photo-album/scrapbook and I attach the photo cards in it. I add a title at the beginning for the year and attach the cards, no details no nothing just the cards. The album is cool and I can just flip through it and it shows pics of my friends from over the years. With no fanfare - each year covers 4-5 pages and the album is like 40 pages so covers a great deal of time.

YOu ladies have such great ideas! I am going to have to do something with all of mine.

My mom also sends me all the ones that she receives so that I can be kept up to date on all of our extended family that forgets I am old enough to get my own cards! So, I am sure I will have a HUGE stack once I get all hers too!

I save all the photo cards that my friends and family send me..the handmade ones go into a basket I keep in my scrap room and the others, like from businesses or cards that I just really don't like (sorry..lol), I toss those...
