Another thing you can do now for next year is use the front of the cards and some of the prettier inside left of card is to make placemats. Just use double sided tape and get them in a retangle. You can use Christmas gift wrap for the background placing and to fill in the gaps. Then do the other side and laminate them. If you have a ton of cards you can make what ever amount you need for your family setting... if not enough, don't do the opposite side.
