1

Place an A4 piece of white cardstock landscape and cut from 10cm down the left side to the top-right corner to slice the top off at an angle.

2

Score the cardstock from top to bottom at 10cm and 20cm to create the three panels. The first fold should be a mountain fold and the second a valley fold to create the Z-fold card.

3

Cover the front panel with orange stitched paper, the middle panel with blue stitched paper and the back panel with green stitched paper. You can get the right shape by drawing around each panel as a template. For the middle and back panels, you will need to use extra pieces at the bottom to cover the full length.

4

Die-cut one large star in blue, three medium stars in green, orange and blue, two small stars in green and orange and four mini stars in orange, blue and two green. Use 3D foam pads to arrange the stars as shown on the card front so they peek over the top of each panel.

5

Die-cut a small stitched circle from white cardstock and stamp ‘Happy birthday’ using Tuxedo Black ink. Adhere to the card front using 3D foam squares.

6

Loop white thread around your fingers a few times and then tie in a bow, trimming the ends. Adhere the bow to the card front using Collall Tacky glue then finish with a scattering of gems.
