A Custom Graduation Invitation and All the Extras

All the pieces of a custom graduation invitation ensemble laid out with prairie grass accents.

We see a fair amount of custom graduation invitations and announcements out on the floor! These are some of the best samples to review because grad announcements and party invitations have changed so much in the last 15 years. We are so impressed with the sophisticated ensembles designers create. Graduates deserve something extra special for this important milestone after all.

Today we’re looking at the custom graduation invitation ensemble one of our in-house designers created for her niece last year. What I love most about this ensemble is its country-chic appeal and, of course, our designer’s expert use of TOG.ink products.

Let’s review these custom graduation invitations and more!

The A7 Digital Flat Cards are printed front and back with senior photos. What an awesome way to show off that gorgeous photography. Kudos to the photographer for this project, Aaron Billberg! A full photo on the front is the perfect way to bring all attention to the person of honor. The back is neatly organized with a photo collage and graduation party details. The rounded corners offer a smooth finish, which adds just the right amount of distinction to this customized grad invite.

The A2 Folding Cards also features that beautiful senior photograph along with a personalized message. The silver-enhanced foil shines beautifully against the photograph and the raised texture of the foil brings out the dimensional appeal of the photograph.

Here’s a fun addition you might not have thought of before. Our designer wanted to create custom graduation minis, which are mini graduation party invitations designed to hand out to friends at school. She took the A6 Flat Card, Digital and designed it 2-up then cut them down after printing. Pretty slick and a great trick if you’re trying to get more for your money. You can see them in the image at the top.

Let’s not overlook the custom printed envelopes…

We have so many envelope printing options here at TOG.ink you can always find a way to make your ensemble even more beautiful. Here, you’ll find simple white envelopes with digital printing on the back flap. Also on the back, check out the enhanced foil seal featuring a black background with silver enhanced foil. It’s a fun way to add a little pizzazz to the ensemble.

Did you see the pink foil on those custom napkins?!

The designer actually created two custom napkins for this suite. The luncheon napkin features one of my FAVORITE foil colors. This isn’t your average pink though, it’s electric! The beverage napkins (cocktail napkins) are digital print only but notice how amazing photos print on paper napkins. It’s another great idea for using senior photographs at graduation parties.

Happy designing, everyone! We hope this helped inspire some new ways to celebrate the graduates in your life!
