Cut out the decorative symbols and words from Geographics Graduation Letterheads or Invitations or use Graduation Seals and glue them on the page in the best places for an enhanced creative touch.
You may want to overlap one or two corners of the photo for a layered effect.
If you would like to use photo corners, cut small triangles, 1 ½” x 1 ½” x 2 ¼” and glue them to the corners of your photo.
To create medallion-like photos use a circle cutter. Place the round picture on a gold circle or heart background.
You can embellish your page using precise cuts of Royal Lace Doilies. Cut circle designs out of the Medallion Doilies or use the scalloped edges to mat a circle photo.
Use vibrant page toppers to create a page subject such as:
- “Tom’s Graduation”
- “Staples High School Graduation Party: July 15, 2009”

Use Printable Gift Certificates to Make a Fun and Easy Gift

by Madlena on May 29, 2013

Printable gift certificates are a personal and easy-to-make gift for someone close to you and they can also be a great way of promoting your business or organization. By making your own gift certificates, you have the freedom to make completely unique designs that are customized for your award recipient or for your company. All you need are some printable gift certificates, a printer and possibly a design tool to create personalized certificates in minutes!

Gift certificates can be made using many materials, but using printable certificates, which are constructed from several paper types and usually feature a pre-printed design, will help to give you a base for designing your certificates. Not to mention, they will look classy and professional out of the printer. 3UP gift certificates are one type of printable certificates that can help you save both time and money; one sheet features three printable certificates separated by perforated lines. As a result, you can quickly print your design on three certificates at once which is very helpful if you are making a large volume of gift certificates for an event.

Certificate templates are a convenient tool when it comes to facilitating the printing process of your printable gift certificates. Most often, you can find certificate templates available for free from online retailers of printable certificates and other stationery. While templates can vary greatly in structure, one common type of template can be made using MS Word. Therefore, all a user has to do is open the template in his or her word processing program, type the message for the gift certificate and print. In such templates, users are also free to add decorative embellishments such as clip art or a defining image like a company or school logo to further customize the certificate. For a more in-depth design experience, a user can also try a design program, such as the online program iClickn’Print, which offers templates as well as creative features like wording and shapes to create gift certificates within a single environment.

Printable gift certificates are not just limited to digital customization; after you’ve printed your certificates, adorning them with stickers, seals, ribbons and other certificate embellishments can add an extra bit of flair to make a gift certificate feel all the more rewarding. Furthermore, gift certificates are designed to be presented! Using a document cover or certificate envelope to hold your gift certificates will make a lasting impression on your award recipients.
