I have 2 large 3 ring binders with page protectors with 4 pockets to store the cards I have made and still be able to see them. Sincte they were both full, I cleaned out the cards that I didnt like anymore or would never use. My problem now is I probably have close to 100 cards that I don't want and I am not sure what to do with them. I hate to throw them away because some one else could use them. Any ideas???
I agree with Sarah - check out the hospitals or nursing homes in your area. My work sends Bday cards to a nursing home so I've made them tons of quick cards. The nursing homes really appreciate them.

I belong to a cardmaking group of ladies and we all had cards we no longer wanted. I made a box with dividers to catagorize the cards, sorted the cards, and dropped off the box with cards to a local nursing home. I stop with a fresh stack often to replenish. The nursing homes resident counsel group furnishes the stamps. I also teach a Christmas cardmaking class at the home every year. I have friends help and we each sit at a table of four to five residents and the shoebox card kits rotate amongest the tables. Many of the residents are challenged physically, so we offer as much help as they need to assemble the cards. They enjoy us coming and we enjoy visiting them!
Nursing homes are always looking for donations of cards,bookmarks and such for the residents. I donate mine to the nursing home my grandpa was in. They do appreciate it and the residents love to send out cards still.
What to do with unused cards?
