Do you have a bunch of greeting cards that you do not know what to do with? I love turning all of those cards into a work of art! If you would like to see how to save greeting cards, just keep reading!

I love having home decor that represents happy moments in our lives!

My daughter loves to look at these picture frames and see cards from her baby shower and birthday! I love that when she is older, she can look at these and see how many people love her! Even before she was born!

What You Need

Greeting Cards
Lever Punch (I use 2 different sizes)
Cardstock or Paper
Picture Frame (whatever size you like!)
Glue Stick

What To Do

1 | Gather Your Greeting Cards

Get all of the cards that you will be using for this project!

2 | Punch Your Favorite Parts Of The Cards

Take a look at all of your greeting cards and choose which parts you would like to punch out. I like to punch out the cute parts and designs to fill in space.

Depending on the size of your picture frame and your lever punch, you will need to punch enough of the cards to fill in the picture frame.

3 | Cut Paper Or Cardstock To Size

Measure your picture frame and determine what size you need to cut your paper or cardstock. It needs to be the size of whatever photo would fit into the frame. An 8×10 for example. I like to use cardstock, so it is a little more sturdy.

4 | Arrange Greeting Card Punch Outs

Next, arrange your greeting card punch outs on your paper or cardstock. This will help determine if you have enough punch outs. Create a design that you like. I like to overlap mine and create a sort of collage.

5 | Time To Glue

Once you have an idea of where you would like your greeting card punch outs to go, it is time to glue them into place. I just use a regular gluestick to do this.

6 | Place Into Frame

Now that your punch outs are secured on the paper or cardstock, fit them into the frame and make sure it looks how you want it to. I make sure there are no gaps along the edges.

When you are satisfied with how it looks, secure your greeting card punch outs into the frame!
