What can one do with an old deck of cards?

I have a Day of the Dead themed deck of cards that I love. But it's a bit marked up and therefore no good for poker. Any crafty ideas for salvaging it?

    Put your business info on a small label, slap it on the back of each card, and you have funky homemade business cards.

    I think you could do a variety of super-cool looking projects with an Xacto knife and some glue. I'm thinking greeting cards or decoupaged lampshades, coasters, bookmarks, switchplate covers (really anything here). The bookmarks might work better if you just cut out the part of the card you want to use and laminate it or seal it between two layers of clear contact paper if you don't feel like getting fancy with a laminator.

    i think you should find a coffee table off craig's list, arrange them on the top, scatter some milagros and/or bird skulls and/or flowers, and pour a bunch of mirror coat on top!

    then feel free to sell it to me, because my house needs that.
