Credit Card Craft Ideas
I'm looking for a use for old credit cards. I want to create something that will remind me of the mess I've gotten into. I'd also like it to serve as inspiration to continue to dig my way out of debt. I have close to 20 cards. There has to be something I could create with these!
Thanks!

it was an old ad for some credit card that Martha Stewart did she retiled her pool with her old cards ;-)
it was a joke but I bet you could cut them into pieces use them in place of broken glass and tile to make a mosaic art project

Pimp Your Credit Card.
You could skin them and make some kind of collaborative framable image... Warning: Some images on that site NSFW (Not Safe For Work).

While I can think of several uses for cards uncut.... I think it would be safer to cut them and use the non number portions for a craft.
That leaves a mosaic of something (next egg? your inspiration for being financially stable IE kids, spouse, house, whatever.) You could get one of those 'make your own' mugs and glue them to the insert to fit in or use the mosaic tiles in photo key chains or coasters. (again don't leave those numbers on them)

There's a woman, Shelly Rae Wood, who used old credit cards to spread paint in some of her art. She has a blog on blogspot.
Not sure if I can post a link yet. Google Shelly Rae Wood, then look for credit card within her blog, and you'll see what I'm talking about. JD
