📸 Add Your Photos
Optional — but add them now and every design below shows your photos instead of empty frames.
Couple Goals
Not a card — a page they scroll through. A sealed envelope opens onto your timeline, your reasons, your photos and a confetti finish. You pick one colour and the whole theme is built around it.
🖼️ Templates For This Occasion
Designs made for Graduation. Your name and message replace the sample text on the finished card.
🎨 Or Just Pick a Colour
You already picked a design above — this is only if you would rather have a plain coloured card instead.

Why send an animated Graduation card?
A graduation message is easy to write badly because the obvious line — congratulations, you did it — is true for everyone in the hall. What makes one worth keeping is naming the part nobody photographed: the year they nearly dropped out, the job they worked alongside the degree, the semester they repeated. Most graduates know exactly which part of it was hard, and a message that shows you knew too is the one they screenshot. This works as a card from parents, from friends, from a partner, or from a sibling, and it holds the gown photographs better than a chat message does — three of them rotate as a slideshow, which is usually enough for the ceremony, the family shot and the one with friends. There are wishes below for each of those senders, plus a group for mature students and career changers, and short lines for a message you send between the ceremony and the dinner.
- ✓Wishes from parents, friends, a partner or a sibling — not one generic set
- ✓A group for mature students and career changers
- ✓Three gown photographs rotate as a slideshow
- ✓Celebratory themes that suit a convocation rather than a birthday
- ✓One link that works for the whole family group chat

Graduation card — frequently asked questions
What do you write in a graduation card?+
Name the difficult part, not the achievement. "Congratulations" applies to everyone graduating that day; "congratulations, especially for the year you almost stopped" applies to one person. If you do not know the details, write about who they were before the degree and what you expect of them after it.
What do parents write for their son or daughter?+
Something you have not said out loud. A line about what you thought on the first day you dropped them off, set against where they are standing now, does more than any amount of pride phrasing. There is a group above written from a parent's side.
What about someone who finished later in life?+
Acknowledge what it cost rather than treating it as belated. A degree finished alongside a job and a family is a harder degree, and saying so is the whole message. There is a separate group for mature students and career changers above.
How many photos can I add?+
Three, which fits how graduation photos usually break down: the ceremony, the one with family, the one with friends. Three rotate as a slideshow, two overlap as frames, one becomes a glowing circle.
Can the whole family send one card?+
Yes. Make it once and share the link — everyone sends the same card rather than a queue of similar messages in the group chat. It also means the graduate has one link to keep instead of scrolling back for photos.
Is it free?+
Yes, with no signup and no watermark. The card stays live for fourteen days and deletes itself afterwards, along with the photos.
Make a card for another occasion
All cards are free with no signup and no watermark. The card is deleted automatically after expiry (7 or 14 days, which you choose). See our Privacy Policy and Disclaimer.
