Birthday card & Toilet Paper Cake

I made this card for my SIL for her birthday using my Scrap Stash Challenge pack I made & think it turned out really well. The inside quote reads 'You turning 40 reminds us of the old Chinese King -- Yung No Mo. I used the Paisley Cricut cartridge for the doll image

 I made my SIL a toilet paper cake for her gift this year because she is always asking us for an extra roll once in awhile & since we live next to each other we help out when we can. We told we got her a cake & she was surprised to find out it was this type of cake. It was fun make as it was to watch her receive it.

Using your Stash Challenge

Made this layout using a kit I created from stuff in my scrapbook stack. I think this is a great idea (Thanks Rachael!!!). The challenge is to use what you already have in your own stock pile of stuff to shop for your own scrapbooking kit & use it to create layouts, cards, or whatever without buying new stuff & too NOT hoard your supplies for that 'Special' project later. Here's a layout I made for the challenge.
