Oh, I have several but my best is this..... take a small jewelry box and wrap it with pretty paper and tie a bow around it. Then, make a tag on the bow with this poem attached. I would recommend using some acid free type paper for your card so it will not fade or deteriorate. I loved this so much I had my kids make one for their grandparents one year, and they loved it too.... Below is a link to get a visual. The one shown is painted, the one my kids made was wrapped. So the poem was altered a bit. Either way is great.

I took an ordinary box
As empty as can be
I filled it with a special gift
And wrapped it carefully.

But you cannot ever open it
Just leave the ribbon tied
And hold it tightly near your heart
Because it's filled with love inside.
