Graduation thank you cards

If you’ve already hung up your cap and gown and your celebratory balloons are hovering just above ground level, your graduation party may be over. But there’s still one thing to do before you begin the next adventure in your life: write and send thank you cards.

Paperless Post makes sending thank you cards for graduation easier than flipping your tassel from right to left. Whether you’re thanking loved ones for gifts, for coming to your ceremony, or for their years of support that made your big accomplishment possible, our collection of graduation thank you cards ensures your “thank you” will be a class act.

Digital graduation thank you cards

From formal to funny, Paperless Post has the right digital graduation thank you card for every graduate. Choose a photo graduation thank you card and feature a picture from your ceremony (highly recommended for guests who couldn’t attend). If sparkles and confetti are more your vibe, send a thank you card with these designs. Or find a thank you card design that matches your graduation party invitations.

Personalized graduation thank you notes

Use Paperless Post’s features and tools to customize your thank you notes before you send them. Upload your contact list via spreadsheet (or access your party’s guest list), and then add a personal note for each card—including details about specific gifts—before you send them all out by email or text.

Take it one step further and add custom stickers or upload an image to create a personalized stamp. You can even change the color scheme of your thank you card to match your school colors.

The customizable options don’t stop there. Add Blocks, like a Video Block with a recording of the ceremony or a Photo Gallery Block with pictures of the party, and change up the overall look of your page with a Page Style of your choice.

What to write in a graduation thank you card

When writing a graduation thank you card message, remember to be appreciative and sincere—even if that means you throw in a pun or two for Uncle Bob. If writing mushy messages makes you uncomfortable, keep your tone light. Start with a greeting and a “thank you” right away, then mention the specific gift you’re thanking them for. If you’re writing a thank you card for graduation money, you don’t need to state the exact amount—the word “gift” works.

Express appreciation for their attendance at your ceremony or party if they came, and thank them for their years of support as you earned your diploma or degree. Sign your message with more gratitude and your name—graduation thank you cards are also the first opportunity to add newly acquired degree abbreviations after your name!
