How to Write Thank You Cards For Different Occasions
By:Apurva Shree

When it comes to writing thank you cards, sometimes, you find it very difficult to find the right words. Well, there are no rules or general format to write these notes. The choice of words will obviously depend upon the nature of the occasion. The content and style will vary a lot. However, no matter what the occasion is, it is always better to start with the first name of the person. Following are some of the ideas that will get your creative juices going.

Thanking For Attending The Funeral Of A Loved One

When you lose a loved one, many people come to support you during this hard time. In this difficult time, you really appreciate that they were there with you, but you may not have an idea on how to send them a funeral thank you cards, thanking for their support and presence. That is the reason why it is very important for you to be aware on how to write such notes. If you already know the words, the task will become easier for you. The first thing that you need is the list of the people who you want to send the cards to. The easiest way to do this is to save all the cards and notes that they give to you. You may also assign this task to a friend or family member to keep track of the flowers and gifts and who gave them. This way, after the funeral is over, you have all the names in one place and all you have to do now is just write and send. You do not need to write long sentences in these thank you cards. Just short sentences expressing your thanks will do. You do not have to be very creative about it either. If you do not want to go wrong with the words, the best way is to write from the heart.

Thank You Notes For Graduation

When you graduate, you are likely to be showered with lots of gifts from friends and relatives. This is how we usually congratulate a graduate. But when someone congratulates you this way, it is not enough to just say thank you. You must also write a thank you note to them. This is how you can let them know that you really loved and appreciated their gifts. However, you do not have to thank only those who gave you gifts. You have to send special graduation thank you cards to your teachers and coaches as well. You can either buy a readymade card from store or create a custom card right on your computer.

Those who gave you gifts also want to know whether the gifts were useful to you or not. Therefore, while thanking for the gifts in your thank you cards, do not forget to let them know about how you plan to utilize their gift.

Sometimes, writing thank you cards sounds like the most difficult thing in the world. Be it funeral thank you cards or graduation thank you cards, you must know how to choose the right words. http://www.zazzle.com/love+romance+cards
