You’ve Watched Them Work for This. Now Share the Pride.
The cap and gown. The smile. The feeling that a whole chapter has come together in one photograph. Graduation is a moment worth sharing—and a printed announcement gives family and friends something personal to hold onto.
Bring their personality into the design with a favorite portrait, school colors, meaningful words or photographs from along the way. Bright Print Works prints your finished artwork on 16 pt cardstock in 4″ × 6″ or 5″ × 7″, with full-color printing on both sides. Beautiful graduation cards can fit the celebration and the budget.
100 Graduation Cards. From $48.
$48 for 100 cards in 4″ × 6″ or $58 in 5″ × 7″. Both include 16 pt cardstock, full-color printing on both sides and your choice of three finishes at the same price.
Flat cards. Envelopes not included. Shipping and applicable tax are additional.
Shop Cards for Your Graduation Announcement →Make the Announcement Look Like Them
A graduation card can feel formal, playful, artistic or bold. The strongest designs give the graduate’s personality room to come through.
The Portrait Takes Center Stage
Let a senior portrait or cap-and-gown photograph fill the front. Pair it with simple lettering for their name and graduating class, then carry the design onto the back.
Then & Now
A childhood photograph on the back and a graduation portrait on the front create a personal keepsake that shows just how far they have come.
School Colors, Boldly Printed
Build the artwork around their school colors, a large class year and confident typography. It is a strong look for an announcement or graduation party invitation.
Beyond the Cap & Gown
A photograph with a musical instrument, on campus or in a favorite setting can reflect the person behind the diploma. Give their interests a place in the design.
A Card Worth Saving in the Family Album
Our 16 pt cardstock gives your announcement a substantial feel. The 4″ × 6″ format makes a compact photo card, while 5″ × 7″ gives portraits, decorative lettering and multi-photo layouts more room. Both are flat cards, available for portrait or landscape designs.
Full-color printing on both sides is included. Use the back for another photograph, a message from the graduate or coordinating artwork. Your card can tell more of their story without an additional charge for back-side printing.
Words That Match the Moment
Proud and traditional, personal and grateful, or ready for a party: the wording can carry the same personality as the artwork. Here are three starting points.

Sample wording shown for inspiration. Personalize the names, school, achievement and event details in your finished artwork.
Give the Back a Personal Touch
A message in the graduate’s own voice can turn a beautiful photograph into something even more meaningful.
“To the people who encouraged me, challenged me and believed in me—thank you. I’m proud of this chapter and excited to see where the next one leads.”
Pair the message with a second portrait, a campus photograph or a simple background in their school colors. For a party invitation, the back also offers room for celebration details while the front stays focused on the graduate.
Finish the Card Their Way
Gloss Front Only
A glossy appearance on the front for the main portrait or artwork, with no gloss finish applied to the back.
Gloss Both Sides
Shine on the front and back for colorful designs and photographs across both sides of the announcement.
Matte Both Sides
A low-shine appearance for understated portraits, elegant lettering and a softer overall look.
All three finishes are the same price for each size and quantity. Every option includes full-color printing on both sides. Gloss Front Only refers to the finish placement.
Celebrate in Style. Keep the Printing Affordable.
All prices include 16 pt cardstock, full-color printing on both sides and your choice of finish. Printed from your supplied finished design.
