Credit cards have a lot of power in the art world. Of course, you can use a credit card to purchase art from a gallery. Some credit cards benefits will even give you free admission to an art museum over the weekend. And a few credit cards designs are so cool; they can be considered their own works of art.

However, have you ever thought about creating your own thing of beauty using your expired credit cards? From paintings to sculptures to gardening props, you'll be astonished at the possibilities.

Here are some of the most amazing examples of artists shredding their plastic in the name of off the chart credit card art.
