Hi All! I hope you are all more ready for the festivities to begin than I am!

Does anyone have a cute, creative way to give or wrap a gift card? We are having a celebration tomorrow with friends and the kids are getting gift cards. I'm sure they will be thrilled but we'd love to have a creative way to wrap or give them. Any ideas appreciated!

Merry Christmas!

Linda
