      4. Stamp one whip cream in Grey Granite. You may like a ‘stamped off’ look better. To stamp-off simply ink your stamp, stamp on scrap paper to remove a bit of ink and then stamp on scrap cardstock.

      3. Cake layers
      4. Cake stand pedestal, instead of cutting across the top of the pedestal, leave a 1 ½” x 1 ½” section attached to the top of the pedestal so you can adhere your cake layers.
      5. 12 Blueberry sections, Affix to the red berry sections as you go, to more easily piece them together in the right spots.
