Some more tweaking from me.  (I don't like the centre shadow, those L's can
be overdone, the top crease is too strong, and some others bits...)

Once I had an axolotl
That I kept inside a bottle.
Then I put him in a pottle,
Coz I thought "I'm sure that's what'll
Please my little axolotl".
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So who wants to do an axolotl ?????????

My toilet paper. Not very good, but I'm a beginner. ALso, it'll probably be out
of whack, I designed it in the Arial font, not having any other options.

Very nice tweaking!
And yes,  some people hang their toilet paper
like this... and also their paper towels in the kitchen!  :P    It makes it
easier to tear off, IMO.     :D

It makes it more difficult to tear off since you are working against the
design of the paper holder. It's supposed to be the other way around!
