What options do I have to get 5v on my current project?
SD cards require 3.3V. Usually, to connect them to an Arduino running at 5V you need to get a level converter. However in your case it sounds like you are making work for yourself:

3.3V &lt;--&gt; 5V &lt;--&gt; 3.3V



  in order to power my sd card module, I need to input 5V 


Which SD card module? Maybe you don't need a "module".
