40th Birthday Cake

Well, I made one for my nephew, Chase, who turn one at the beginning of the month so I decided to go much further in age and made a birthday cake keepsake book for Scott for his 40th birthday.



I used the same rub-ons that I used on Chase's cake, I really like the style of these from Scenic Route:


I went to CVS and used their Kodak Kiosk to make 2x3 pictures so I could fit more in the book:








I love these wood flourishes from Kaiser, they fit so perfectly on this layer of the cake:
