We use our own bags at grocery stores and we dont live far so we try and walk as well!
I like the traditional halloween card. I make sure to recycle everything possible.
I like the Spruce Christmas Lights. Really cute cards! As for a green tip- we have reusable grocery bags, and have switched to cloth napkins at home.

As a vintage enthusiast I absoutely love the pink snowflakes card!
As far as green living, my husband and I recently started working towards a rent-to-own option on a beautiful hunk of land and home in New Jersey. By next year we are [fingers crossed] growing our own produce, and we are going to get chickens for fresh eggs, and if I get my way [heh] goats for milk and cheese!
I like two! I can't decide...They are the Christmas Holly and Cranberry Holiday Wrap cards. So lovely!
Green tip: make your own laundry detergent! Less chemicals and plastic and less cost.

I like the Spruce Christmas Tree. We too use reusable shopping bags, and one I made myself by upcycling an old tablecloth and an old vest. Would love to win.
The Dark Cranberries is really cute.
My green tip is to make your own cleaners from vinegar and baking soda.

Okay, I'm jumping on the vinegar bandwagon like some other commenters. You can use it as a carpet cleaner (works GREAT), fabric softener in the laundry, it does a great job of cleaning out the dishwasher (just run it through a cycle), it's seriously the best cleaner ever. Love it.
Holiday Snowman is my fave card.

I like the Christmas polka dots. So cute!
I try to use reusable shopping bags. And when I do get plastic or paper, I use them again as garbage bags. We also carpool.
I love the cranberry holiday wrap card!!

Thanks for the cute link! I love the bright sassy colors! I am going green by only running errands once a week... saves on gas, time, and money! I also buy all produce at the local farm stand.
Love the Vintage Spruce Christmas Lights card!
My green tip is how to recycle all those cute little plastic containers from the gerber foods... I mean, how many can one mom use right? So, I donate them to the local schools. The science teachers at the high schools love them!

I like Christmas Snowflake.
Green Tip: We use stainless steel drinking containers during travel instead of buying bottled water.
It's so hard to decide! I love so many of these cards, but I'd probably go with a holiday card, and the Holiday Swirls is very pretty. I'd even splurge on the extra postage.
My green tip: I use vinegar to clean just about everything. I add some drops of lavender oil to make it smell nicer. I think it's akin to the Windex used by the father in My Big Fat Greek Wedding!
i love the cranberry peapod! so cute!
my favorite green tip - cloth everything - bags, cleaning rags...
I like the holiday card "Plum and Spices" Very elegant! My green tip is do not throw out old postage envelopes. Recycle them by using them to sort and store coupons and recipes or magazine clippings
I love the Holiday Snowman cards and would love to win a gift certificate!
My green tip is to check the numbers on the bottom of plastic bottles before I buy a product.
Whenever possible I buy the product in the bottles that I can recycle in my area.
Love Feliz Navidad sky blue and snow card.
my green tip, we use reusable grocery bags and recycle I make crafts with my kids.

I like the honey dew christmas card, very sweet.
green tip: send our kid to school with reusable containers( for everything and include a cloth napkin).
Holiday swirls is my favorite. I like the design and that it features one big picture.
My green tip is to use your own totes at the grocery, and everywhere else you go. Skip the plastic bags, or bring them back to the store for recycling if you get home with some.

so hard to choose but I LOVE Spruce Christmas Lights!
My green tip that I'm trying really hard to remember to do is turn the water off instead of letting it run while we brush our teeth.
I like the Christmas Square card. I recycle cans.

Thanks!

Cranberry Holiday Wrap is beautiful.
Green tip. Recycle everything you have in your house all the way down to your old carpeting or flooring. Alot of people could use older coats you can't use, or clothes you or your kids outgrow. Goodwill or freecycle what you can.
Broken dishes? Make a mosiac!
I like the Christmas Lights one.
Green tip? Canvas bags, funny looking lightbulbs, and major recycling.
I really like the Holiday Snowman card!
