My gift giving philosophy is that a gift is more than what is inside the package. If the gift is presented in a unique way, that’s what the recipient will appreciate and remember for many years to come.

The DIY Christmas iPhone Card is a great example of this kind of thinking outside the box when it comes to gift presentation. The how to video will take you through a step by step process to craft a homemade card that features a built in iPhone complete with a Holiday app, [Baubles](http://www.atomicantelope.com/bauble/),to add the finishing decorative touch.

Watch the video, and maybe you will be inspired to take an ordinary gift and make it truly extraordinary.
