Materials
- Cardstock - black and glitter
- Adhesive (glue/glue gun/glue dots)
- Toothpicks, paper straws, or acrylic sticks
Instructions
- Start by downloading the free graduation cake topper SVG file.
- Open the SVG file in Cricut Design Space.
- Select the appropriate size for your cake topper by adjusting the size of the design in Design Space.
- Next, load your cardstock onto the cutting mat. It’s recommended to use a green Cricut mat as it provides a strong adhesive grip for thicker materials like cardstock. Load the mat into the Cricut machine.
- In Design Space, make sure that ‘cardstock’ or ‘heavy cardstock’ is selected as the material you will be cutting.
- Click the ‘Make it’ button to start the cutting process.
- Once the cutting is complete, carefully remove the cake topper from the mat. Take the cardstock off the mat upside down*.
- Assemble the different pieces of your cake topper with an adhesive like glue dots or glue. For this tutorial, I am using double-sided foam pads.
- Finally, insert the cake topper into your cake by attaching toothpicks, paper straws, or acrylic sticks.
