Default Etiquette Question

Over the years, I have saved cards stampers have sent me. A lot of them were not signed so they could be regifted. Do you think that's okay? I just hate for them to sit there. Thanks for your opinions.

I would be honored if another stamper liked my card enough to send it to someone!!

I have tucked cards like that sometimes with my card donations to MD Anderson for Hope You Can Cling To... then they get gifted twice!

I would have a hard time using one myself, but I would donate them with envelopes to a church ministry, or another like mentioned above.

The reason I would have a hard time using them myself is because I didn't make them.

But it is a great idea to put them into circulation and used

I'm glad to hear you say this. I think my family and friends would really be surprised to get a card from me that was not made by me.

I have often passed along lovely cards made by others to friends who don't make cards but love to send them.

If the card isn't signed, then I think it would be ok to send, but I would include a "p.s. I did not make this card" or something like that.

When I am lucky enough to receive cards from others, I reconstruct them, so that I can reuse the embellishments for example.

My mother cuts the fronts off cards I've sent to her, reattaches them to a new cardstock base and resends them. BUT she stamps her "handmade by" stamp on the back! It totally cracked me up when I found out she was doing that. Now I usually make her really elaborate or special cards that she won't take apart. LOL
