A popular design for graduation invitations is the logo of the institution from which you are graduating. If you are proud of being a graduate of your institution, then show your true school pride with your school's logo. Or if you have been admitted into a college or university, print the logo of that college you will be attending on the front of your invitations. You can also be more specific in your future college logo by personalizing it with your desired degree. For example, if you plan on attending college to become a nurse, include an image of a nurse's cap or stethoscope along with the logo.
If you are planning your graduation party within weeks from your actual graduation date, you will have plenty of time to choose a photograph of yourself proudly wearing your cap and gown, and holding your diploma right after graduating. Show off the image of your achievement by printing these on your graduation party invitations.
If you wish to send out a simpler style of party invitations, print images of a graduation cap and gown, or even a diploma. If you are printing your own invitations, many resources, such as Microsoft Word or OpenOffice, offer free clip art with a large variety of images from which you can select. An even more creative idea is to roll up your party invitation and tie it together with a ribbon to appear more like a diploma.
Consider a collage of photographs throughout your time spent in high school. For instance, you might want to find pictures of your most memorable moments with friends, field trips, sports, clubs or any other extracurricular activities you have been a part of during high school. One layout technique would be to have your own graduation cap and gown photograph at the center of the invitation and the collage of pictures surrounding your graduation picture.
