An EBE play day ... with a little bathroom humor...

Okay, look.  I simply must find something to make me laugh these days.  My Essentials by Ellen stash came in really handy to scratch that itch!!  Hope these make you chuckle, too!

 
Our Leading Gentleman is such a romantic.
of creating TP!  [hope she doesn't mind! eek!]
My own personal sense of humor carries over to the inside:
 
 
This die, from the EBE Stitching Lines totally reads
 'sections' in the TP to me - perfect for the inside sentiment!
 

Now, I never imagined our darling EBE Handful holding toilet paper - until now... it is 'what's for gifting' these days!

 
Adding the inside sentiment with washi makes it easy to
pass on the humor to another!
 

For my final bit of Bathroom Humor - EBE Handful stamps and dies really came in handy!  It was fun doing a little tile work again!  These little squares were found in my snippets!
 



 
As much as I wanted to make that hand pull, I thought
it would be fun for the card recipient to get interactive.
 
All I had to do was keep the hand stationary, and allow for the TP to be slipped from her grip!  Then, let it roll!
 

I used a strip of natural cardstock, made the score marks between squares with
another Stitched die,  and found the perfect sized sentiments from
the Handful set!  Rolling it up on a paintbrush, and found a bit of
bamboo skewer from my kitchen for the 'roller'  which is held on with
a bit of wired jute, but allowing room for it to spin.





So, that's it!  My Bathroom Humor!  Hope you [and Ellen, Brandi, Julie, and Heather] find it fun, too!

Once again, I am rolling (get it) on the floor. Bathroom humor has always been big in our house thanks to my mate, so these all just tickled my funny bone. Especially, when you consider current hoarding tendencies by some folks.
How stinkin' (oops) clever is that toilet paper roll? Geez, only you could come up with that.

I can't believe the tp unrolls. It's funny and it's a bit sad we ran out due to panic buying.
