Sweet Summertime Blog Hop

Welcome to the Trendy Twine-SVG Attic Sweet Summertime blog hop!  We are so excited to have you join us today!

At each stop of the hop we hope you will be inspired by the creativity of the design teams of Trendy Twine and SVG Attic. You are sure to find many wonderful projects that will be at the top of your crafting lists!

You should be arriving from Melissa's blog. If you happened across this post out of order, please head to the Trendy Twine blog to start at the beginning of the hop.

Here is the project I created, a fun patriotic ensemble!  July 4th is always such a fun summer occasion for my family.  We get together for fireworks and make s'mores then when we are all finished we make root beer floats :)

 For the firecracker double cascade card, I used SVG Attic's Star Spangled 4th kit.  Isn't the design of this card amazing?!  I used  Krazy for Kraft, Stars and Stripes, and Cranberry Trendy Twines on the firework bursts at the back of the card.  Around the front oval panel, I used Cranberry Trendy Twine and placed a bow of  Krazy for Kraft at the center bottom.

 I also created two firecracker boxes from SVG Attic's Festive Fourth set.  The blue one is the tall firecracker.  I used Krazy for Kraft twine as the "wick" of the firecracker.  I simply made it into a tassel, flipped it upside-down and glued it to the top of the box.  I also used Stars and Stripes and wrapped it around the center panel several times to add more visual interest.

 The red firecracker box was crafted in the same way as the blue one, but it is the medium box from SVG Attic's Festive Fourth set.  I also added a bow on the circle panel with Krazy for Kraft twine.

The patterned papers I used for these projects are from The Paper Studio's Vintage Nation stack.
