Design notes
This landscape design is laid out as the back of a postcard. The message side on the left holds the title, a short note of thanks and four things the team will remember, with two signatures at the foot. On the right, the name is written on the first address line, the program fills the next, and FROM names the senders. A swallow stamp in the top corner is cancelled by a postmark that carries the issue date, above the team, credential ID and QR code. It suits an office send-off or a framed keepsake.
About
Farewell Certificate Template, Swallow Postcard Landscape
Saying goodbye well matters. When a colleague leaves for a new role, a teacher moves to another school, a student finishes the final year or a staff member ends an overseas posting, a farewell certificate of appreciation puts the group's thanks on record. It is usually presented at a leaving party, a last staff meeting or a school farewell, signed by a manager, a head teacher or a team lead on behalf of everyone.
Wording on the template“As you set out for your next chapter, we thank you for all you gave this team. Your work, your kindness and your good humour leave a lasting mark here. Go well, and keep in touch.”More wording ideas for farewell certificates

Post for the recipient to share
Today was my last day with a team I will miss a great deal. They sent me off with this farewell certificate and a lot of kind words. Thank you to everyone who taught me, helped me and made the hard days lighter. I am excited for what comes next, and I hope our paths cross again. #Farewell #NewChapter

Printing
Printing it well
Print at actual size
Choose “Actual size” or 100% in the print dialog, not “Fit to page”, so the margins and the QR code keep their size.
Use card, not paper
A matte or silk card of 200–300 gsm (about 80–110 lb cover) feels like an award and does not curl in a frame.
Frame it
A4 fits a standard 21 × 29.7 cm frame; US Letter fits an 8.5 × 11 in frame, or an 11 × 14 in frame with a mat. Hang it on its side, as designed.
Mind the edges
Most home printers leave a thin white border. For a design that runs to the edge, use a print shop or your printer’s borderless setting.
