What about a cross shape with a grad cap in the middle of a bow?

I like Reecie's idea...I think it would be perfect. I know she said cheap, but did you guys discuss price? Cheap to you might have a different meaning to her.

I'm soooo sorry. Just do your best, hopefully she will be happy with whatever you come up with since she wasn't very specific. I'm sure it will be beautiful no matter what you choose.
