Let's take a look at a few examples of some projects that feature birthday party paper crafting. 

Creating cute and colorful centerpieces for your party is a snap with a few colors of card stock, our Die-namics, and colorful straws. Keisha created a simple, yet eye-catching piece that could sit on a the cake table with the Balloon STAX and Happy Duo Die-namics.

Take your gift wrapping to the next level by stamping on a kraft box and adding gorgeous dimension with our rolled flower Die-namics. Here, Keisha adds a gorgeous pop of color using Razzle Berry card stock and the Mini Hybrid Heirloom Rose Die-namics.
