Step 1 of 9

Place stencil 1 from the Quattro D Collection, on a piece of white cardstock cut slightly larger than the stencil. Softly spray the Izink Morning Mist from the left hand side, through the stencil 

Line up stencil 2 and use your spot blending tool to apply a soft blend of Hickory Smoke Oxide, from left to right, loosing pressure as the brush travels. 

Step 2 of 9

Having lined up stencil 3, blend with the Izink Metal Silver, to achieve your final stencilled detail. 

Step 3 of 9

Ink up the coordinating stamp with the Versafine and stamp over your stencilled image. 

Step 4 of 9

Use the coordinating die to cut out your beautiful artwork. 

Step 5 of 9

Line up the die cut, 3D element in the coordinating embossing folder and run it through your embossing machine. 

Set to one side.

Step 6 of 9

Trim a piece of white card to 4 1/2 x 6 1/2" and place in the same embossing folder, at an angle so only the top right corner is captured. Run it through your machine, then set to one side. 

Step 7 of 9

Using white card, die cut 7 or 8 of the "special" and "birthday" sentiments, found in the Quattro D Collection. 

On a piece of card no shorter than 4 1/2" wide and sufficient to hold 3 rows of your die cut sentiments, start adhereing your sentiments edge to edge, to cover the card and allowing for overhang. Once you have adhered 3 rows, trim off any excess overhang and uncovered cardstock. 

Mat this on to a piece of white card 4 1/2 x 2". 

Step 8 of 9

Adhere the sentiment banner across the bottom third of your embossed background, then adhere using foam pads, on to your card blank. 

Step 9 of 9

Ahere your 3D cake element using foam pads and finish by adding the beautiful Whisper sequins. 

You made it!
