Craft reuse... old business cards?

Question

What is a use for old business cards? A co-worker quit and left like a thousand of them... ideas, anyone?

Answer 1

I'd do some kind of gift/scrapbooking tags. Stamp them..altered art, etc. The shape of them just seems like it would work well for a tag.

Answer 2

You can glue 2 together front to front and make placecards out of them for parties.  

At a bridal shower - use them as part of the games.  Have the people draw a china pattern on them for the bride

Baby Shower - have everyone write down a piece of advice on them and give it to the expecting mama.

Lay a bunch of them out on a piece of plywood - double stick the back of each one - draw and color in a picture of a popular cartoon character on all of them - then take them all off and use as a puzzle for kids.

Answer 3

Dr Cardeologist would certainly appreciate them...if you shoot him an email he may pay the postage....I save all my hobby/business cards for him.

Answer 4

I use mine like index cards.  Just turn them over and write names and phone numbers.  I also use them to write websites that I like, along with my password to that site.
