Mascot Graduation Melon Carving

Cheryl Vogel, who is a customer of several of our video lessons, created this watermelon carving. It features the school mascot, a pirate. Isn’t it cute how she topped it off with a graduation cap?

Customer Cheryl Vogel carved this pirate mascot after learning how to carve graphics in our video lessons, Carving Letters and Words. She dressed it up beautifully with flowers and curly kale. Then she topped it with a cute mini-graduation cap.

Customer Cindy Rozich, who has learned from nearly all of our video lessons, carved this lovely “congrats” melon for a graduation.

If you are looking to create a whole display of fruit carvings for a graduation, take a look at the beautiful fruit display created by Kentrina Jones. Notice that the honeydews, carved with 2017, are also lit from inside for a little extra dramatic effect. Also, the columns holding up the center graduation cap watermelon and the parfaits on each side are  lit from within.

Graduation Cap Pattern

Customer Noel Searles carved this graduation watermelon using the Graduation Pattern that we offer in our online shop. He made the decorative cuts around the pattern using our Corrugated U-cutters.

Nita,
I did go through your “Lettering” course because as I told you I wanted to do a graduation presentation for my nephew. The course was very helpful and I would highly recommend it. I used your graduation template and then used a word editing program in order to add the: AHS CLASS OF 2017 on the bottom of the image. I used your Fabric Transfer which was “worth its weight in gold” It was the hit of his party and he even took it to another graduation party the next day.

Thanks so much for the instruction and the tools which I purchased and used.

Best regards,
Noel Searles
