Since Gnucash is licensed under GPL you should make sure to choose a license that is at least *compatible* with the GPL. Please note that the Free Software Foundation considers neither of the Creative Commons licenses to be compatible with GPL (see [3]). So distributing some graphics under CC license together with Gnucash under GPL might impose major legal headaches...
