Hey guys! With the July 4th holiday just around the corner, I decided to create a super fun 12x12 scrapbook layout. I've been loving the Hometown USA Collection but I haven't used its Shadow Box Insert Kit yet. So ... today's the day! 🎉 I think this page turned out so cute and celebratory. I just love it!

If you haven't used one of the Shadow Box Insert Kits yet ... I totally recommend. It comes with a circle template, white cardstock, vellum, and tons of adorable stickers. You place the stickers on the vellum with the help of a template behind it and when you remove the template ... voila! The cutest patriotic collage ever!

These are so fun and every paper collection has one. The Hometown USA kit is filled with fireworks, the Statue of Liberty, American flags,
a hot air balloon, enamel sprinkles, and so many great images.

Here's how I created the layout ...
I used the 12x12 Land of the Free red hearts paper as the base and layered white cardstock and the 12x12 Summer Celebration fireworks print on top.
Then, I cut out a 7.25" circle from the red Land of the Free paper and used that behind the round collage.

Next, I matted my photos and added those to the page. I chose the 6x6 stripe print called Red, White, and Blue behind the photo above. I thought the smaller size worked better.
And finally, I decorated the page with die cuts from the Bits & Pieces and Chit Chat. I used 1 sticker from the This & That (the metallic silver USA in the photo above) and added a little bit of ladybug twine to my tag.

Such a fun and simple layout but I think the fireworks and fun collage make such a big impact. Perfect for the 4th of July celebrations.
I hope this layout inspires you to create something wonderful with the Hometown USA collection and the Shadow Box Insert Kit. They will definitely have you looking forward to the holiday!
