2 Celebrate Cards with the new Checkerboard Die

Hi Whimsy fans - Alanna here and I'm thrilled to be posting on the Whimsy blog today featuring some great new products from the June release along with an older die.

I am featuring the brand new Checkerboard die and Otters paper from the June release along with the fabulous Celebrate Word & Shadow die

.

For my first card, I die cut the Checkerboard die out of a piece of paper from the new Otters paper collection. I then added foam squares to all the parts that needed it.  I layered this over some green card stock. 

I then die cut the Celebrate die with white and black card stocks. I love how you can use this die for many different occasions, whether it be a birthday, graduation, an accomplishment, retirement and more.

Some enamel dots from the It's a Party collection finish off this card.

For my second card, I die cut a piece of white card stock with the Checkerboard die. I then inlaid all the pieces that were left over from my card above. 

Again, I added the die cut Celebrate word and some gems and this card is finished.

Here's a look at both cards together. I hope you have enjoyed and gotten inspired. Crafty hugs!
