Lori Whitlock Creative Team June 2026 Blog Hop


Hello and welcome to the Lori Whitlock Creative Team June blog hop! The order this month is Lori, Brandie, Cathy, Chelsea, Sue, Noelene, Tamara, Holly, and Lindsay.
This month, I am sharing a tag flip I created using the Tag Set 3 file (SVG, Silhouette), which includes several tag options that will be useful for future projects. I also used the Groovy Summer paper collection by Echo Park Paper Co., which is bright, fun, and has just the right touch of retro style.
 




That's all for me today. Cathy is up next. Be sure to enter the giveaway!

5x7 Barn Easel Card Tutorial

Hi there! Today I am sharing an assembly tutorial for the 5x7 Barn Easel Card Patriotic (SVG, Silhouette). This barn card includes several elements, but the assembly is straightforward. Each piece has at least two layers. Start by gluing down the barn stripes, followed by the roof trim. Assemble the door and windows, then attach them to the barn. Center the wreath around the top window and glue the banner to the middle of the barn. Finally, align and attach the small fence along the bottom and right side of the barn.


The card base consists of two pieces. The top piece features two score lines that are folded as mountain folds. The end fold is glued to the back piece, forming the card base. Attach the green grass strip to the front of the card at the open edge. Apply glue only up to the middle score line on the card base, then center the barn over the glued area, aligning it with the bottom of the card. The truck can now be glued to the front of the card aligning it to the bottom and left side of the car. 
The sentiment is glued inside the card near the center. Adding foam dots to the back of the sentiment will help keep the card open, though they are optional.



This barn card is darling and makes a festive decor piece for the recipient. Be sure to check out all of the available options in Lori's shop. Thanks for stopping by today!
