5X7 4th Of July Balloons Card Tutorial

The 4th of July is right around the corner.  Lori has some new 4th of July projects in her shop. Today I’m going to share a tutorial for this card (SVG, Silhouette).

The front of the card can either be created by printing or using a sketch pen.  Today I’m going to show the card using the sketch pen.

In Silhouette Studio open your file and ungroup the pieces. Place the front of the card on the mat. Click on Send, to open the Send panel.

Notice above, the cut lines are selected in red. Select the Line panel (available in some version of Studio).

Click on the box to select the No Color selection.  And change the tool to Sketch.

Now we have the red lines set to cut and the no color set to sketch.  We are ready to send to the machine.

Here you see the sketched lines.  I think it looks so cute.

Now cut all the other pieces for the card.

I then used the front piece to lightly trace the balloon outlines onto the card base.  This helps with placing the balloon pieces.  Adhere all the balloon pieces to the card base.

Next, adhere the card front to the card base.

Also, adhere the white star middle pieces and the ribbon.

There is how to make this adorable 4th of July card.  You can also sketch with Cricut software.  Similar steps. Let us know if you sketch this card with your Cricut and share your projects.

Thanks for stopping by!

Tuesday Awesome New SVG File!

Check out the new SVG file project that I designed for you this week! The best part is that this new SVG file is ON SALE 25% OFF through Sunday at midnight in the SVG Shop. This project has been a labor of love and I’m super happy with how it turned out. This is the only new release we have for the week and it’s a special one. I designed a birthday card organizer that includes compartments for pens, 5×7 cards, A7 envelopes, and a print+cut birthday date planner that you can make. It also includes 3 drawers to store stamps, washi tape, paperclips, and tags in. I think you’re going to love it! I also have an assembly tutorial video for you on my YouTube Channel.

Note: I’m sorry that there are not more new releases this week, but my 91-year-old father fell and broke his hip this weekend so I’ve been helping him through surgery and the beginning of recovery. We have a few hard weeks ahead as he recuperates from this. But, he’s a trooper so we all have hopes of a good recovery for him. Everyone careful out there!

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.

July 4th Pinwheel & Hat Box Home Decor

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!
