Cricut Joy "In Case Of" Sign

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine.

I am so excited to share with you guys my first project with the Cricut Joy machine.  The inspiration for this project comes from the earthquakes that happened here in Ridgecrest, CA last July. A 6.5 on the 4th and a 7.1 on the 5th with numerous asftershocks that still occur even today. Having this sticker on my front window gives me some peace of mind that in an emergency, my birds won't be forgotten.

4-Layer Dessert Cake

This recipe was given to me by my friend Jo.

"This is the best I could come up with. I’ve been making this for so long I don’t even know which recipe I might follow. I use pecans because that’s my favorite but my kids like walnuts better. Any kind of pudding works, large or small boxes, sugar free or not, any milk (I usually use 1%). If using two flavors as in choc and vanilla let first layer set before pouring on second flavor."

1 Cup Flour
1 Cube Soft Margarine
1/2 Cup Chopped Nuts
1 Cup Cool Whip from 9 oz. container
1/4 Cup Powdered Sugar
8 oz. Cream Cheese (room temperature)

Mix the first 3 ingredients together, pat into 9x13 inch pan (mixture will be thick). Bake at 350* for 15 minutes. Blend rest of ingredients well, spread over crust.

3 Cups Milk
2 Tsp. Lemon Juice
2 Pkg. instant lemon pudding mix (you can also use pistachio, chocolate or banana)

Blend this and spread over cheese mixture. Then spread rest of Cool Whip. Sprinkle a few nuts on top if you desire. Refrigerate for 5 hours.
