Graduation Centerpiece & Invite

Ok, since we're talking centerpieces, I thought I would also post a small one that I made for my son's Graduation Party. I found the metal pot at Dollar Tree. I used Geaorge and Basic Shapes Cricut Cartridge. I'm also sharing the invite that I put together. I find that it is more of a challenge to put together something for a male. No flowers and pretty ribbon! I cheated a bit and actually used some really pretty double sided ribbon! One side
white and the other side black! I chose to keep black, gray and silver as the main colors on the invite even though his school colors were black and baby blue!

Centepieces

Here are the Monkey centerpieces that went along with the Monkey Invites. I used 2 different Cricut Cartridges for these centerpieces, New Arrival and Mini Monograms. I like to make centerpieces that match invitations. For the invites I used the Monkey QuicKutz die... these other monkeys were WAY easier to put together! Less steps involved. Less time consuming. As much as I love using my Big Shot, I also love using my Cricut!!! Oh and in case the pictures don't show clearly, these were made out of just plain terra cotta pots that I painted... Then I wrapped ribbon around it. All the lollipops and the scallop square were kept in place by the foam in the middle of the pot. Very easy to make!
