More T-shirt Patriotism

I have one more 4th of July project that I really wanted to get finished and blog for you, but I'm afraid, it is time for me to walk away from the computer and get packing for my family reunion!  (That project will have to wait until next year, sadly.)  But before I do, my friend Jackie has been going to town making all kinds of cute t-shirts for the 4th, and I had to share them with you incase you are still trying to figure out the perfect outfit for the weekend's festivities.
These first two she made using the bleach technique I wrote about here and here.  It is PERFECT for the firework feel of these shirts!  And how many of us have a "little firecracker" that could rock this shirt?
This one she made using freezer paper she cut on her Cricut.
I have to admit that I have yet to do a freezer paper shirt.  Where is the best place to purchase freezer paper?  And I had no idea you could cut them on your personal cutter.  Which would be really cool if I had one!  
This is the applique design that we almost did for our reunion shirts.  It looks great with the stripes, doesn't it? You can get more info on Jackie's blog?

Do you dress up for the 4th?  What about your kids?
