The Background

The background of your graduation stationery matters! Dispense with the boring white of everyday printer paper and instead opt for vellum colored paper. If this is not exactly what you are looking for, why not go with a graduation background--such as they are available from Hellas Multimedia--that not only mimics the yellow vellum but even features a whimsical Snoopy in the upper left hand corner?
