scissors
marker
a guitar pick

thankfully my handy dandy pocketknife thing came with both scissors and a nail file!

Step 2: Tracing the Pick

pretty much self explanatory
just put the pick on the gift card
and trace around it
is that so hard to follow?

don worry about the rough edges
you'll trim them soon

sorry about the blurriness

Step 4: Trim It

trim the rough edges to make it pretty smooth

you have your new pick
