Turn your favorite pictures into personalized announcement cards. There are endless software programs, templates and stores that provide photo card services. It is as simple as uploading your photos into a template and adding a custom message to your card.
Take a cue from the customary save-the-date wedding announcements and make homemade magnet graduation cards. Most office supply or craft stores have business card or photo-sized magnetic sheets. Peel off the paper side of magnet to expose the adhesive side and attach your graduation card.
Most party stores offer miniature graduation caps to use as decoration during a graduation party or event. Send your cards in style by carefully fitting each graduation card into a cap. Use a paint pen to write your name and graduation date on the top of each cap, and it turns your announcements into mini keepsakes for family and friends.
Make your graduation greeting cards stand out by tailoring them to your degree. If you're a graduate finishing a bachelor's degree in journalism, for example, make certificates tailored to journalism. Many university bookstores offer graduation cards for specific majors as well.
Print your own custom cards either online or with simple software found at various office-supply stores. Printable cards give you the flexibility to customize each card individually or write different messages for each set of cards. And printing your own cards is the most affordable option.
