Send Off the Grad With a Card They Keep
When a text will not do, this is the card you hand a graduate. It starts as a flat printed sheet, gets a clean score down the middle, and folds into a card with a front, an inside for your message, and a back. Announce the big day, invite people to the party, or write a proud congratulations, and a folded card puts your words on a fridge instead of getting swiped away. A set of 50 starts at $56.02, rated 4.8 out of 5 across 17 reviews.
These cards do more than one job. Print a cap-and-gown photo on the cover, a printed note inside, and leave room to sign by hand, then drop it into a matching envelope and mail it.

The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 50 starts at $56.02, and the per-card cost keeps sliding as the count climbs, so a full order for a whole graduating class costs far less per card than a small batch.

What Are Graduation Greeting Cards?
Graduation greeting cards are folded cards printed full color in 2 fold sizes, an 8.5" x 5.5" sheet that folds to 4.25" x 5.5" and a 10" x 7" that folds to 5" x 7", on any of 17 stocks. People reach for them as graduation announcements, party invitations, congratulations cards, and thank-you notes for gifts, because a folded card gives room for a photo, a printed message, and a handwritten line all at once. If you want a broader mix of occasions, the general Greeting Cards cover the same folded format for birthdays, weddings and more, and the graduation version sits right beside them tuned for the send-off.
What Size Should a Graduation Card Be?
The right size comes down to how much you want to show. The 8.5" x 5.5" sheet folds to a tidy 4.25" x 5.5" card, small enough to slip into a standard envelope and mail cheap, ideal for an announcement or a short note. The 10" x 7" folds to a 5" x 7" card, a bigger canvas with room for a full cap-and-gown photo, a longer message, or a bolder cover. Need something in between? Set a custom size up to 10" x 7". Both fold sizes, both finishes and the full stock list are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it. For a more textured, premium feel on the same folded card, the Velvet Greeting Cards are another way to go.
Here are a few easy ways to make a graduation card do more.
Pick a stock that fits the moment
A heavier stock gives the card real presence in the hand. Keep it bright on 14pt or 16pt gloss cover, go natural and writable on an uncoated or recycled stock, or reach for a metallic pearl in ice, champagne, silver or gold when you want the card to catch the light like a celebration. The 16pt soft touch reads velvety and the 14pt and 18pt white linen add texture you can feel. Finish it Standard, or add a High Gloss UV Coating to make a photo or a foil-look design snap.
Mail it as a set with envelopes
A graduation card usually needs to travel. Add matching White Wove A2 envelopes in the configurator so the folded card and its envelope arrive together, ready to address and send. Shipping a big run for a school or a class? Turn on bundling and choose whether we fold the cards to finished size or ship them scored and flat for you to fold.
Design it without a designer
You do not need a design background to make a graduation card look sharp. Start from a professionally built layout in our greeting card design templates, then change the colors, copy, name and photo in the online editor in minutes. A clean cover and a warm line inside is all it takes.
Already have your artwork? Skip the editor and download a press-ready blank instead. Each blank graduation greeting card template is built at the real fold size with the bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so your design never crowds the cut or the fold. Grab the size that matches your order below, drop your art in, and upload.
Wally sends off the grad in style
Why a $56.02 set of 50 folded cards says congratulations louder than a text.
A set of 50 graduation greeting cards costs $56.02, folds to a clean 4.25 by 5.5 or a roomy 5 by 7, and prints full color inside and out. Add matching A2 envelopes, pick your stock, set your speed, and Wally gets the whole batch printed in time for the party.

How Much Do Graduation Greeting Cards Cost?
Graduation greeting cards start at $56.02 per set of 50, about $1.12 a card, and the per-card price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 100,000, where a card runs closer to $0.04. So the cost really comes down to how big a run you order: 800 cards run $241.65 and 7,000 come to $608.50. How many do you actually need? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-card cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.
Do They Come Folded and With Envelopes?
Yes on both. Every card is scored down the middle for a crisp fold, and you choose whether the plant folds it to finished size or ships it scored and flat for you to fold. Add matching White Wove A2 envelopes so the set is ready to mail the moment it arrives, and print full color on both sides when you want a photo on the cover and a message inside. Pair a heavier stock with a High Gloss UV Coating and a simple folded card starts feeling like the keepsake a graduation deserves.
How Do They Compare to the Rest of the Greeting Cards?
Graduation cards are the pick when the occasion is the cap and gown, but they are one option in a larger folded-card family. If you are weighing a general greeting card, a textured velvet finish, or a save-the-date for the party, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up graduation greeting cards against their closest siblings, including Save the Date Cards, so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.

How Fast Can You Get Graduation Greeting Cards?
Graduation cards print on a 5 business day standard turnaround, and when the ceremony sneaks up you can move that to 4-day, 3-day, 2-day, Next-Day or even Same-Day production. Each step buys back time for a set amount on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Same Day orders need to be approved by the daily cutoff to ship that day. Compare every turnaround tier below and see exactly what the rush adds before you pick.
See the Rest of Our Cards
Graduation greeting cards are one stop in a much larger lineup, and you can scan the full print product range any time. If a general greeting card, a velvet finish or a save-the-date would serve the occasion better, the rest of the family is one tap away. Each option shows its own starting price and links straight to its product page, so finding the right fit takes seconds.
