Today, we are featuring the new birthday cover plate dies: Zen Doodled Birthday Cake and Zen Doodled Birthday Gifts. And I have 2 projects to share with you all that I created using the new Zen Doodle Birthday Gifts Cover Plate Die:

First project is this birthday gift box. I made the box with the WRMK Envelope Punch Board and patterned green cardtock.

The front of the box, I decorated it with the cover plate die cut. I cut out a light green and blue metallic cardstock. I glued it on a white cardstock. I took some of the blue pieces and added it to the gift box and bag.

For the sentiment, I used one of the Just Everyday Greetings Clear Stamps. I added the sticker on a white cardtock, and trimmed around it. I added on the panel with adhesive glue.

I added the finished top front panel on the box with permanent glue and then tie up a piece of ribbon around the box for embellishment.

For the second project, it is quick and simple birthday card. I used the metallic blue piece that I cut with the cover plate.

I made a watercolored background with Leisure Arts Double Ended Markers and waterbrush. I used the smoohing technique to blend the colors and dried it with craft heater. After that, I sprayed it with some water using distress bottle and dabbed off the water with paper towel.

I added the watercolored background panel on a white card base with adhesive glue, and then I added the blue die cut panel on top of it using dries-clear adhesive glue.

I cut out a white cardstock using the Celebrate Big Phrase Die, I cut it twice. After that, I stacked them with dries-clear permanent glue. I added it on the card with the same glue.

I hope you all enjoy these projects and hope you all can come to join us at this BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION!!!!

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a fabulous day!
