Graduation season has arrived! Or at least it’s just around the corner, and that means not just the actual commencement ceremony, but the fun parties and celebrations that often accompany this exciting educational milestone! From kindergarten graduations to college commencements and every academic stage in-between, if you have a grad-to-be at home, chances are you’ve already been bombarded with offers to purchase those generic announcements. The thing is – those may be perfectly “nice” but they certainly don’t show off your grad’s style and personality. Not when they all say the same thing and look the exactly the same, other than the portrait! And that’s where Simply to Impress can really help you standout creatively! No matter what their age, we wouldn’t be surprised if you’ve got more of your kids’ photos – in formal, informal, silly or just sweet poses – than you know what to do with. So, why not do something truly unique this grad season? In just a few steps, you can create custom graduation invitations or graduation announcements with favorite photos! The online design tools make it a fun and easy process and now, not only can you upload directly from your computer, you can also get one-click access to photos on ®FLICKR, Facebook, Instagram and Picasa. With hundreds of amazing designs to choose from, we’re sure you can find the perfect invitation or announcement that will either welcome everyone together to celebrate or just spread the exciting news to family and friends all over the world.
