I started out with a 5x7 shadow box.
I then used the picture inside the frame to cut a white base and used the Nifty Fifties cartridge to cut the bowling pin and ball and the title. I cut the Spare Change part out with vinyl.Next, I cut a rectangle in the side of the paper and then laid it over the back of the shadow box and traced the inside of the rectangle. I then used an exacto knife to cut the piece out.
Once my rectangle was cut, I used my tape runner to attach the paper directly to the back. This way, it won't move when you add the change in it.
Now, I put it back into the shadow box to finish the bank. The coins can fit right into the slot.

She is going to LOVE it! We had a bowling party for my son when he was younger and it was a big hit. He still has the bowling pin he received in his closet (it has been like 10 years).
I am glad to hear you leg is doing better.
Take Care,

I love this idea - much more fun than your traditional piggy bank! I'm a sucker for a pun, too, that's what lured me in! Spare change - ha!
I love the coins at the bottom.
