Step #1: Make the stamp.



- Print the cupcake template available for download under Files above.
- Place the paper template over the foam sheet and cut out each shape. For the candle, first cut the outer shape, then cut out the inside. You may want to use an X-Acto knife for this step.
- Glue the foam shapes to the wood block and allow them to cure for at least 1 hour. While you let the stamp cure, continue on to the fabric flags.
