4th of July Decor Inspiration!

Hi guys, Traci here! Today, I have a great home decor project to share with you for the 4th of July. I made it using two Lori Whitlock cutting files called Pinwheel 3 (SVG, Silhouette) and Uncle Sam Hat Box (SVG, Silhouette). With it’s patriotic colors and festive paper, it’s sure to add a fun accent to your home or party.

I started with the pinwheels. To make them, I used red, white and blue card stock, a few Doodlebug Designs petite prints for pattern, some colorful brads, and blue plastic straws.

I cut the pieces out using my Silhouette machine, folded them into place, and used brads to secure each one. Then, I punched a small hole in the end of the straw and attached the brad through the hole. So simple!

And … so, so cute! These pinwheels don’t actually spin but they look amazing and I absolutely ❤️ them.

Next, I cut and assembled the adorable hat box. I added a bit of white shredded crinkle paper inside to help hold the pinwheels in place. You could also use this hat box to hold candy, straws, or drink stirrers. Great decor and super useful!

Box Card Cherry Carton Tutorial

Hi there friends! Have you seen all the new cherry themed projects in Loris’s store yet? So darling! Let’s make the new Box Card Cherry Carton (SVG, Silhouette-soon to be in the store!).

I used papers from the Down on the Farm Collection by Echo Park Paper Co. Once I had everything cut out, I inked the edge of the cherries, flower, and decorative panels. I then glued the all the panels and cherries in place. The first insert has four cherries, and the second insert has three. The two tabs on the ends of the box pieces are mountain folds and then glued together creating the box.

Now to add the inserts. The tabs are valley folds, and the glue is applied to the outside of the tab (the side that is going against the inside of the box card). I lined up the front of the tabs with the front of the inside of the box and the top of the tabs with the top of the box card.

Before the glue is dry, I fold the box card flat making sure it will fold flat all the way.

I use the same process for the second insert except I line the tabs up to the back of the first insert and the top of the box card.

Lastly, I glued the sentiment and the flower to the front of the card.

Now the card is ready to send! Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you have a cherry good day!

NEW! Cherry SVG Files 25% OFF!

Who loves cherries? I have such fond memories of visiting Utah in my childhood and picking cherries with my family. In fact, I love cherries so much that my husband and I planted two cherry trees in our backyard. Our cherry trees have already bloomed and little green cherries are growing right now. In a few short weeks, they’ll be plump, bright red, and ready to eat. Because cherries are so sweet, I designed a set of cherry themed SVG projects this week. All of these cherry SVG files come individually and in the Cherry Project Bundle. And, the best part is that these files are 25% OFF this week because they are brand NEW. Check them out, they are SO CUTE!….

Be sure to check out each product listing to see a quick 360º video of the projects. Thanks for checking out the NEW FILES and be sure to go grab the cute 3D Camper Father’s Day freebie of the week.

I hope that you all have a wonderful day! Have fun crafting!
