We're still celebrating Earth Day at Jingle Belles by incorporating recycling into our card designs.
I have happy memories of licking S & H Green Stamps and filling-up the Green Stamp books with my Grandma, so when I found some filled books at a local vintage store, I couldn't resist bringing them home.
Once of my earliest jobs was at a grocery store that gave away Green Stamps with purchase ... I remember choosing the denomination and spinning the dial, so the stamps would dispense ... I even used Grandma's filled Green Stamp books to buy my first iron when I went away to college.
As I was searching for items to use on my card, I also found this great piece of corrugated packing material that I had saved for just such an occasion. I used the Spellbinders Large Poinsettia die on lots of scraps of red paper from my stash (hence the differing shades of red).
I finished with die cut leaves and a Hero Arts Winter Wonders sentiment ... I love how the red & gree nof the stamps works perfectly for a holiday card design.

FAB card! I used green stamps to buy a desk lamp that I took to college and had for years afterward. Fun memory!
