Birthday Box Centerpiece Base
I started with a common 6 X 6-inch cardboard gifting box that includes a lid. First, I covered the sides with a dot paper using E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refill and embellished several of the dots! Not only did I use 3D Foam Circles White Mix topped with Metallic Transfer Foils Holographic but I also added Adhesive Dots Large with iridescent glitter!

Next, I wanted the top to resemble decorative frosting. Around the edge of the lid, I added 3D Foam Strips and attached chunky twine to it. I used Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8in to securely attach the red pom trim.
Assembling the Cake
In finishing the centerpiece, I crafted a 3D slice of cake using a die set.

When assembling the cake, I used various adhesives such as Dual Tip Glue Pen, E-Z Runner® Refillable Dispensers and E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser. Lastly, I added the “happy birthday” banner with 3D Foam Squares to finish off the birthday box centerpiece.
