For this swap, you will make one (1) fourth of July ATC plus a firecracker!! Firecracker you say??? Yep!! You take a toilet paper roll or cut a paper towel roll about 4 inches long, fill it full of fun stuff, like beads, embellishments, small 4th of July pretties, lip balm, earrings, anything to fill up the roll!!
*******NEW END DATE: JUNE 1st....SEND OUT By or Before JUNE 20th****

Then part two, you will wrap the roll in red, white, or blue paper and tape one end (to keep your surprizes in) and the other end leave a little length to the paper and cut like it looks like shredded paper. You will be able to stand the firecracker up and use for decoration until the 4th...then you will want to pop your firecracker!!
(These will look like Christmas crackers that you pop, with just one end taped)
Sign up ends June 15th...Mail out June 20th!! You can go ahead and make your atc and firecracker and have it ready to mail out so it will arrive in time for July 4th!! |

Beth,
I love all my goodies. The cherry jelly beans lasted about 10 minutes with me. The cherry lip gloss is yummy. I have tried to post pictures of my goodies. I think the ATC card keeps coming out sideways. Thank you so much again. Patsy

Glad you liked them, oh, I understand about boxes when we move here in maine last august my husband put almost all my craft boxes in the barn, needless to say they are still there behind a lot of his items. I have had to buy a lot of double items to work with. You also have a great 4th! |

Thank you Jill for the wonderful package. Your firecracker was great. It did pop open on its own so I peeked inside. The hankie and bracelet were really cute and the bracelet matched the ATC card which was really cute. The notepad is going to be very useful. I am sorry I can not post a picture now but the camera is packed and I can not remember which box, I hope I can get them all unpacked next week. Thank you again and have a great 4th.
With lots of hugs and smiles, have a great day.

Hi Maddie, So glad you got your package. Yes I made the little stars they can be just to hang for decoration or you can use them for a hanging pin cushion. They were just fun. Glad you liked everything. It was a fun swap.
