I don't like to waste anything in this house and security envelopes are usually saved to make gift tags. However I came up with an idea for a Christmas card using them too.
Lots of little trees!
Obviously I couldn't stop there and had to make some more cards!
My favourites are the black and white butterflies and the Christmas trees one. They all look better in real life as I just can't seem to get decent pictures of them!
I'm not sure if I should add them to my shops or just keep them for fairs - I have 5 booked before Christmas. What do you think? And what about the price - they are fairly simple so I don't want to charge too much - I was thinking £1.50. I'd love your views on the cards and the prices please.

I like them - Simple but Effective, and £1.50 is a good price for ANY handmade card, even a fairly simple one. :)
Cunning bit of reuse/recycling there, too - well done!
They are super cute! If you can't get good pictures, I would say just take them to the fair. I don't know how much your materials cost, but 1.50 seems like more than a fair price.
Wow! I love the tree card. Lovely lovely.
They get my vote too!
Loving the black and white butterflies....
.... and the price.
Love the xmas trees & butterflies, so cute and price is fine. Maybe sell in packs as well??
I never think of anything that groovy before I throw them in the recycling!
Love the idea! Very cute!! I'm lousy at choosing the 'right' price, too, so I don't really know... It's good to be paid for the materials and your working hours, eh?...
I love them and I think you should stock some in your shops. Customers will love the clever recycling idea as they do with your gift tags. £1.50 is a good price too. Good luck!
I love the trees and butterflies, the price is spot on too.
I think they are really lovely at a fantastic price too :)
Ooo! I love these! Very effective. I think £1.50 is a very good price.
I really like them. What a great idea! I may have to start squirreling away security envelopes. ;) I especially like the trees--the blue and white makes them look snow covered. I'd take them to the fair. It's not like you're losing anything by doing it, and you might find they're a hit at such a great price. (Especially with card-writing holidays coming up.)
What a GREAT idea! I could totally do that - and I think I will. These are adorable.
Great idea...I have been saving those security envelopes and I might just turn them into Christmas cards.
Great idea!
I love these - very simple yet extremely effective! And eco-friendly too! These will be a hit, I'm sure - let us know how they go down at the craft fair!
Super great idea!!!!
These are super! Love 'em in all it's simplicity! :)
Great idea, and I don't see anything wrong with your photos. 1.50 is very reasonable for a handmade card.
