Christmas card layout

I have done this every year since I lifted this idea
from Ali Edwards way back.
Every year the amount of cards get a little smaller but
its still fun. I also put the cards on my little tree long.
So I take all the cards from the tree and put them on a page
to remember them and to save them.
(This tree is from a few years ago).
This year was the year of snowmen and if it wasn't
a photo card which are tucked into the pocket,
 I fussy cut out whatever took my fancy and
added it to the page like an embellishment.
And there is no guilt in tossing out the remnants of the card.

I did save a card from my Uncle Harold who is up in age
in order to preserve his handwriting and little note.

Using what is left of the Pebbles paper or maybe there's more
I'm sort of "out of order" on posts.
