Celebrate moments big & little with certificates
These days getting everyone to bed after feeding, schooling, working, and everything else is for sure a major accomplishment and deserves some kind of award. Plus, we could all use more celebratory moments right now. Celebrate your family or friends or neighbors with a certificate of appreciation, completion, or create a gift certificate to hand out as a prize/incentive.
For instance, “The bearer of this certificate has earned one hour of video games!” Or, "This certifies that you're the best mom ever and whenever you hang this on your bedroom door nobody can bother you!" (That's a thing, right?)

Make your own coloring pages
Pro tip: To make letters that are perfect for coloring in, choose a chunky font like Arial Black, then apply Outline + Knockout from the Effects tab on the Text palette
Browse our enormous graphics library and use it as your very own DIY coloring page maker. Our vector graphics allow you to stretch them as big as you wanna without losing any resolution, which is great for creating a standard-size printer paper 8.5 x 11 inch coloring sheet.
Choose a blank canvas to start
Add graphics like animals, flowers, sea creatures, foods, or abstract shapes
If you want to add text, go for it!
Download and print

Create your own sticker sheets
We are kinda obsessed with our graphics, in case you haven’t noticed, and for good reason, too—our amazing designers actually hand draw a lot of what’s on offer. On top of that we’re constantly sourcing new graphic sets which means we add new graphics all the time for you to use.
If you have sticky label paper lying around, put it to good use by making your own stickers. Simply arrange as many as you like on a blank canvas and then print.
Pro tip: use the Alignment palette to help line up the graphics evenly on your canvas
DIY a school picture collage
It’s entirely up to you if you wanna remember this year or not, but if you feel like you do (I mean, it IS historic!) then create your own yearbook using the new and improved collage tool to collect your pics. Access the collage tool and dozens of layouts from the left tabs, drag and drop your photos or videos into the cells, adjust the borders and corner roundness, then add graphics and text—boom, Jostens has got nothing on you!
