Tips & Warnings
If you don't want to decorate the paper, you could even use plain white paper to gift wrap the CD and then just add a colorful bow or ribbon. Another idea is to find a pattern or image that you like on the Internet and download it or use an image on your hard drive. Open the image in a graphics program and resize it to fit on a 8.5 x 11-inch paper. Print the image onto regular letter-size paper and begin with Step 2 to wrap the CD.
