Thank you so much for watching! Now let’s check out more Design Team inspiration!


Mindy combined cute mice from You Autumn Know and Whoosh Kites with sentiments from Simply Celebrate Graduation and You Goat This to create a super cute card! And the mortarboard and diploma from Woodland Critter Huggers Graduation Add-On are so charming added to the star!


This Outside In Stitched Star shaker window is so fun and adds a special detail to Mindy’s simple design!


Latisha stenciled her card with Graduation Caps Background Stencils before adding Giant You Did It! She layered the giant greeting on a pink pastel pearlescent vellum circle with a sentiment from Simply Celebrate Graduation.


Perfect for an elementary school graduation, Megan‘s card features a cute chalkboard! She used the Shadow Box Card to make the frame for the chalkboard, cutting it from Woodgrain cardstock. Then she added an apple from Build-A-Barrel: Apple and white embossed messages from Simply Celebrate Graduation.


Melissa‘s card is so eye-catching! With a glittery gold background, she layered on a Candy Cane Lane oval shape. It’s the perfect colorful backdrop for the black Giant You Did It and the graduation cap!


Elena‘s graduation card is a fun shaker design with Simply Celebrate Graduation! The background from Candy Cane Lane petite paper adds fun color and gold foil stripes. Elena used Ta-Da! Diorama! Scalloped Window Add-On to create the shaker window.


The reward for finishing a course of study is a summer filled with sunshine and fun! Yainea‘s card features Giant You Did It with Pool Party! She added a Fly High sentiment on a Fancy Wavy Banner and a strip of Vertical Rainbow Stripes Washi adds lots of happy color!


Audrey used Graduation Caps Background Stencils to create an overall design on her card. Then she added an Outside In Stitched Apple with the cap from Woodland Critter Huggers Graduation Add-On! And then she layered Scripty Congrats in Green Sparkle cardstock on a white Scripty Congrats Outline Add-On.


Tammy‘s graduation card is so elegant, even with the cute mice of Simply Celebrate Graduation! She created a full card shaker filled with star shaker bits. And the Giant You Did It in glittery gold looks so good with the black, red and white mortarboard and diploma from Woodland Critter Huggers Graduation Add-On.


Grace created a glitter filled shaker card to congratulate the graduate! And the colors and collage elements are so fun and perfect for a celebration! She stared with a Stitched Rectangle panel of Rainbow Ever After petite paper that she cut using Reverse Stitched Scalloped Circle Window.


Then Grace created a collage using Woodland Critter Huggers Graduation Add-On, Party Balloons and congrats from Simply Celebrate Graduation. She used the thin guides from Pull ‘n Slide Surprise to cut a rainbow of cardstock strips to layer Louie’s ABCs letters on! So bright and fun!

Introducing!

Today is our showcase of Simply Celebrate Graduation with its coordinating dies and coloring stencils. It’s time to celebrate the graduates! The row of adorable mice, coordinating speech bubbles, and graduation-themed sentiments will earn your projects a gold star! The chalkboard is a perfect place for your mice to peek from above and admire your heartfelt sentiment. With lots of ways to say “Congrats” your grad will be all smiles on their big day! 

And we have a fun new greeting die, Giant You Did It! Send really big congratulations with this giant sentiment. It’s perfect for graduations and for celebrating any proud moment! This die fits a standard sized card! Use your favorite color of cardstock (shiny is super fun) or patterned paper for a unique look each time!


We will also introduce Graduation Caps Background Stencils and Scripty Congrats Outline Add-On! This 2-piece flying graduation cap stencil is sure to add a fun detail to your graduation cards! These stencils work well with a variety of crafty techniques. Add an outline border effect to your Scripty Congrats Lawn Cut! Layer Scripty Congrats on top of the outline using the embossed “congrats” as a guide for easy placement.

Simply Celebrate Graduation is perfect for graduates of all ages! Tammy‘s cute square-shaped card uses Stitched Scalloped Square Frames as a border around her little scene! The addition of the books and worm from Little Woodland Library Friends is another charming detail!


Mindy‘s graduation card is so elegant! She stenciled the Graduation Caps in black with gold tassels and stars. A little Prisma Glitter sprinkled on Gold Stencil Paste before it dries adds lots of sparkle! She left room at the bottom for the “congrats” in a scripty font from Simply Celebrate Graduation with Oliver’s Stitched 123s and a sentiment from Bubbles of Joy.


Caly combined Giant You Did It with the adorable mice of Simply Celebrate Graduation! I love how the rainbow-colored caps match the colors in the Rainbow Ever After paper on the Stitched Rounded Rectangle panel.


Audrey‘s used Giant You Did It for a retirement card that is just so perfect! She used Distress Inks to create a sky and beach background. Then she layered on fun beachy elements with Palm Trees, Simply Celebrate More Critters, and “driftwood” from the new Simply Celebrate Hangouts! Finally, she included a great sentiment from On the Beach!


I love how Melissa colored the chalkboard from Simply Celebrate Graduation green because it brings back fond memories from school! Her simple design features the white embossed sentiment and a black Stitched Rectangle Frame.


Elise‘s beautiful design combines Woodland Critter Huggers Graduation Add-On with Giant You Did It! The neutral Let it Shine Starry Skies cream paper is the perfect background for the shiny Metallic Champagne greeting!


This card by Latisha is so pretty with the two-tone blue Graduation Caps stenciled in the background. She added a coordinating mortarboard from Woodland Critter Huggers Graduation Add-On and a sparkly gold Giant You Did It greeting!


Elena‘s delightful design features Simply Celebrate Graduation with some cute details! She used balloons from Yappy Birthday, a banner from Treat Cart and adorable books and bookworm from Little Woodland Library Friends!


Yainea’s Giant You Did It design is perfect for celebrating a major accomplishment! The little bear from Coaster Critters has made it to the top of Stitched Mountain Borders, an excellent reason to celebrate!


Megan‘s graduation card is so happy! In addition to Simply Celebrate Graduation, she included images from Smart Cookie and a mouse from Virtual Friends Add-On. And I love how she added shading to Giant You Did It.


Melissa created a bright and sparkly design with a Pink Sparkle Giant You Did It greeting to coordinate with the stenciled pink tassels with Graduation Caps Background Stencils.


Grace‘s Pull ‘n Slide Surprise card is so special with lots of shiny and sparkly gold! In addition to cute border of graduation cap wearing mice she also added another mouse from Really High Five.


I love the collage look that Grace created with Giant You Did It, Woodland Critter Huggers Graduation Add-On, Outside In Stitched Star Stackables and a cute “notebook” page from Sweater Weather Petite Paper Pack.


The cute sentiments from Simply Celebrate Graduation are ready to be revealed when the slider is pulled up!


Mindy created a clean and simple Simply Celebrate Graduation card with sweet Tassel Tag embellishment!


Chari‘s paired Giant You Did It with the cap and diploma from Woodland Critter Huggers Graduation Add-On in this bright and cheery design! I love the clean and simple look and the whimsical colors!


Grace‘s adorable interactive Pull ‘n Slide Surprise graduation card features a special Scripty Congrats greeting! She layered it with the new Scripty Congrats Outline Add-On in coordinating Moonstone cardstock and Bitsy Blooms blue plaid!
