Letters from all of us, in one farewell card

By the Kehdoo team · Updated 28 October 2026

The letters theme presents a group farewell as a collection of personal notes on cream stationery. Ink-like colours, fine borders and a wax-seal detail give the card a handwritten feel. Choose it when the messages matter most and you want a warm design without travel or office-party imagery.

What does a letter style farewell card look like?

The recipient's portrait or initial sits in a stationery-style frame. An opening note from the organiser introduces the card, and each contributor's wish appears on a separate paper note. The group count and signed closing line make it clear that the messages belong to one shared goodbye.

This is a digital card with letter-inspired styling. You do not need to scan handwriting or post envelopes. Contributors type their messages and can add their own styling and signature through the signing flow.

Who is this theme suitable for?

Letters suits colleagues, friends, teachers and mentors when the tone is personal. It can work equally well for a small team or a family spread across different cities. The visual language is broad enough for a job change, retirement or a move without implying that the recipient is taking a flight.

Choose the minimal theme for less decoration, or the scrapbook when informal memories and photo details should lead the experience.

How do you write an opening letter from the group?

Keep the organiser's introduction short. Say who the card is from, acknowledge the goodbye and invite the recipient to read everyone's own words. Avoid trying to summarise every contribution before they have opened it.

For example: "Alex, we wanted you to leave with more than a quick goodbye. These are a few memories and thank-yous from the people who loved working with you. Take your time with them. With love, the team." Change the name and relationship before using the idea.

What prompt helps people write a personal note?

Ask contributors to finish one of these thoughts: "Something I appreciated about you was…", "A moment I still remember is…", or "One thing I hope you take with you is…" Each encourages a concrete detail while leaving room for a different writing style.

A thoughtful note does not need to sound literary. A familiar phrase in the writer's own voice is often the best fit. The farewell message guide has examples for people who feel stuck.
