It’s officially gift card giving season. It’s that time of year when procrastinators load up on gift cards and scour the house for a creative gift card holder. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not knocking all your gift card givers.  I would rather walk barefoot on a floor strewn with Legos than step foot into a shopping mall right now. I’d rather watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians on a commercial-free loop with toothpicks holding my eyeballs open. I’d rather eat a bowl full of candy canes…and I hate candy canes. Almost much as the Kardashians.

So, today’s post is for all you gift card givers. I’ve got your back with a simple project that will make those gift cards a little less generic and a whole lot more fun to receive. Keep scrolling because this is gonna be gift cards like you’ve never seen ’em!
