Default Graduation card sayings

Does anyone have an idea of what to write inside the cards I have made for the graduates? :confused: I am drawing a complete blank, and want to write a simple message inside. Please help me!... Thanks!

Do you want to write something or want a stamped sentiment? I ask because I have a stamp set from Hero Arts that has a couple of sentiments that I am usiing for Graduation cards.

One says "The best way to your future is to Create it"

Another says " The Future belongs to those who believe in their dreams"

My favorite is a sentiment from an old SU set:

The tassle was worth the hassle!

I know this isn't a graduation set, but I happen to like the sentiment from SU's Live Your Dream.

The sentiment reads: Go Confidently in the direction of your dreams.

I think it might be appropriate for a graduation card.

An old stand-by message I use on graduation cards is: "Keep your feet on the ground, while you reach for the stars."
This may not suit your purposes, but thought I'd offer it up.

Another option is googling "graduation card sayings", then choosing one to print on your computer.

One I have used on the inside of a card decorated like a graduation card with 'Congratulations' on the front- 'Oh the places you can go!'

For my niece, I created a lovely, flowery, glittery card with the sentiment "Live Your Dream" on the front . . .

and on the inside, I wrote: "unless it's the one where you're naked in public"

She was already aware that her aunt was just a little "off".

I'm looking for a quote for the inside of a graduation card for a neighbor's daughter. As much as I love yours, I don't think I'll use it. LOL

This is the card I made for my sister's graduation next weekend...:
Graduation card sayings-img_1992.jpg
Inside I wrote this quote I found online:
"Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul.
Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal."
HTH!!

I went with a star theme, too. Of all the Cuttlebug embossing folders I had, it seemed the most appropriate for a graduation card. For the inside I simply put, Reach for the stars.

Lately, I'm going for keeping it simple with my graduation cards.

Outside I say "Congratulations" in a fancy font.

Then inside: "Your Future Awaits"

What great ideas! I think I'll make one of each (except maybe not that naked one, LOL)

I have a stamp that says "The best thing about the future is that it only comes one day at a time" Abraham Lincoln. I use that a lot for grad cards.
