For my cake I used the following items;
3 paperback books
some satin ribbon
Valentine Hearts Card
Valentine Stripe Card
Dew Dew Glue
Raindrops Dew Drops
I then marked the books top edges with pencil to guide where to fold the pages
I then folded the pages of each book using the mark, it's important to keep the folds as tidy as possible, I make sure the bottom of each fold is level with the rest of the book
for the top layer of my cake I only needed to fold 1 half of a cut book, this is because the fold for this layer leaves half pages which doubles the bulk of the book and it curves itself into the shape below
For the bottom 2 layers you need use both halves of the book and glue them together using hot glue
This is how they look once glued
Next I stacked and glued each layer, added some ribbon and placed onto a cake stand
Using the Valentine cardstock I die cut "lots" of rolled roses, rolled them up and glued them together
I then hot glued some of the roses onto each tier of the cake
I added a dome of rose to the very top tier
I gave the cake stand a little extra love with some clear dew drops
and here it is in all it's glory.
