Oh, The Places You'll Go - Teacher Thank You Note


Last year, my daughter graduated from kindergarten, so being the party mom I am, I signed up to help with our completely over-the-top Dr. Seuss inspired graduation party. I shared my creative inspiration, the invitations, food ideas, tutorials for decorations and finally, some lousy snap-shots from the big event itself. I don't know how you could have possibly missed all of those posts, but if you did, click those links to view the madness. ;)

In the very last post, I shared a photo of the thank you card I designed for the teachers and it's gotten such a warm response that I've decided the post a slightly-updated PDF version for your printing pleasure...figured you wouldn't want another kid's school mentioned in your card, so I swapped out the "BBP" for a more generic "our school days" that anyone can use....

The original version was two layers. The colorful swirls were printed on transparency film and the text was printed on card stock for a fun peek-a-boo effect...similar to the invitations. I used some colorful string to tie the two pieces together. Here is the PDF for that version: Download Thank You Cards - 2-Layer


NOTE: The transparency will print upside down, but when you fold it over the cardstock, it will align correctly

If you don't want to mess around with the transparency, here is a PDF you can print straight onto cardstock and be on your way: Download Thank you - single layer

For both versions, print on standard 8.5 x 11" film or cardstock and then simply fold in half and trim your margins. (NOTE: For some reason, when I download the PDF from this post it has an odd white margin along the left side and bottom edge...if anyone knows how to correct that, please let me know. The file looks fine on my computer when I open it from my desktop.)

That's all there is to it! I hope you are able to put these to good use. If you are not the DIY type or would like a custom version with your school name I'll be happy to put those together for you. You can use the Paypal buttons below to purchase a custom PDF, custom printed card or a generic printed card. Be sure to enter your school name and make sure to include your shipping or e-mailng address. PDFs will be e-mailed within 1 business day. Cards will ship in 2-3 business days. BTW, this is the first time I'm using paypal checkout from within my blog, so hopefully, it works ok...please let me know if there are any hiccups!! Don't want to stress anyone out. ;)
