Sneak Peek: May 2024 Dies

Good morning! It’s Lindsey here, and I am excited to give you a peek of the fun mix of dies releasing this month.  There are some awesome basics to add to your stash as well as a bunch of new dies to help you celebrate oodles of happy occasions – graduation, wedding, baby, and more!  You’re gonna love them!  

New release will be available May 8th

Since graduation season is upon us, I immediately pulled out the fun Graduation Cap Shaker Die. This die gives you options to add a shaker element to the top of the cap, the bottom of the cap, both, or no shaker element at all. You choose. :) 

On my card I decided to fill the bottom of the Graduation Cap Shaker with Mint Shimmer Confetti Mix. I jazzed up the tassel a bit by trimming along the stitched lines and layering three colors of cardstock.

I considered adding some florals to the top of the graduation cap because I think the personalized graduation caps are so fun, but I opted to use the beautiful new Floral Semicircle Die to add florals to my card base instead. 

I finished the card with the Congrats Shadow Die and some numbers cut with the previously released Graduation Mug Additions Dies. This simple design makes it really easy to customize colors for your graduate. And if you want to go a little more masculine, you can always swap out the florals with the solid, stitched semicircle die in the Floral Semicircle die set.  

The baby themed products this release are absolutely darling!  I have six friends having babies in the next couple months, so I have lots of baby cards to make. I made this set of cards using the largest of the new Eyelet Squares dies.  

On the first card, I added the darling new Onesie Shaker Die. After cutting it, I stenciled on the Starry Background Stencil and added “baby” using the new Baby Mug Additions Dies.   

Then I used the Sentiment Strips Dies to repeat the colors on the background. Finally I added a few stitched stars found in the Baby Mug Additions. 

While I had the Baby Mug Additions out, I die cut a bunch of the other shapes and blended ink on them for my second card. These super cute baby items were designed to be great mug fillers, but I wanted to show another option.  I turned the wrapper in the new Big Celebration Cupcake into a little basket.

I added a bow from the new Beautiful Bows Dies (so many fabulous sizes and styles in that set!) and a little flag using a sentiment from the Baby Basics stamp set. You’ll also see a peek of the Baby Words Stencil on the background.  

Thanks so much for joining me today! I feel like I only scratched the surface of the new dies releasing this month. Be sure you come back tomorrow to see a full look at what’s coming on May 8th!
