Personalized Graduation Piggy Banks

I was at Michael's today and found the cutest little piggy banks to craft with.  I found them in the baby party section packaged in a case of 6 on clearance for $7.99.  SOLD!  I used the Free Cut of the Week Cricut Craftroom Exclusive - Graduation Cap 2013 to create the graduation verbiage.  On the opposite side of the piggy, I used the Cricut cartridge Cherry Limeade to add the recipient's name. 

I used different colored vinyl to add my verbiage.

You simply add money in as your graduation gift.

And here are the piggies all dolled up and ready to present.

More Grad Subway Art ~ Cricut Craftroom Free Cut of the Week

This week, Cricut  has opened a free file to cut with several 2013 graduation year phrases.  I think they will end up making a layout out of the cuts as an example, but this is what I came up with:

Materials Used:

• Cricut Craftroom Exclusive Graduation Cap 2013 and Cricut Craft Room Basics (both are free to use)
• Stampin' Up! Night of Navy and Grey neutrals cardstock
• Silver bling
• Silver ribbon from my stash
