If you do not know what to give your friends for their birthday, and this problem occurs quite often, then a good solution would be to take an interest in the range of stores whose purposeful activity is to provide their customers with a huge selection of interesting, stylish, fun and not particularly affordable gift options. I would like to offer for consideration such an option as comic certificates. What it is and how it looks, what is the target audience and cost - that's what you may be interested in, and we will devote this note to these issues. So first.
What is a "joke certificate"?
This is an analogue of any original document (diploma of education, passport, diploma, license, certificate), made in line with a humorous style. Accordingly, the document is equipped with a certain holiday date: international or public holidays, celebrations of each individual individual (birthday, promotion, marriage, birth of a child, mother-in-law's birthday, etc.).
The manner of execution of this kind of souvenir
As mentioned above, joke certificates for the most part look similar tooriginal documents. That is, in most cases, the original format is preserved. For example, a comic letter, certificate or certificate is an A4 sheet, laminated or glossy, with the same design as the original, filled out according to a humorous legal template. The style and manner of filling in the text for any document is preserved - otherwise it simply would not make sense, this is the joke.
Target Audience
Any person who has a little bit of a sense of humor, regardless of age, will be able to appreciate such a gift. The bottom line here is different - to correctly select this most comic gift certificate, so that it really suits the event and does not carry an offensive character for this person. It is important not to "overdo it" with humor.
How much can a certificate of this type cost
At the moment, according to the state of the market this year, the price limits for these products range from 50 rubles. and higher. The simplest options - paper, glossy, laminated, cardboard - can cost 50 rubles, and 79, and 105, 200. More solid options are also possible, which will cost much more. This includes a wall-mounted version using silver or gold. Prices for such a product start from 2500 rubles and more.
In general, there are a lot of ready-made certificates and very different ones. Here are at least some of them on the following topics:
1. Variations on the theme of the wedding (humorous "marriage contracts", "licenses to use" one of the newlyweds, "instructions foroperation”, “certificate” for mother-in-law love, diplomas of anniversary).
2. On the theme of the birthday - certificates, decrees on awarding, certificates for gifts.
3. Professional options - driver's license, passports, diplomas of education, certificate of a fisherman (doctor, teacher, lawyer, housewife, seller, etc.) of the master class.
What else the buyer should know
As an independent gift, comic certificates (not those for 4500 rubles, of course) rarely appear. It is better if they are an addition to something. For example, when a guy presents a gift to a girl in honor of their joint date (or other celebration of that kind), or the company congratulates his friend. Complete with other gifts, it would be nice to combine a comic birthday certificate if we are talking about this holiday. A budget version of a present for a twenty-year-old student from her friends - a cake and a piece of humor in the form of a "License to take out the brain."
For young couples, a certificate for the fulfillment of a wish or an invitation is suitable (complete, for example, with movie tickets). In honor of the holiday, you can give your wife a certificate of exemption from homework (at the same time, it would be nice if the certificate is comic, and the release is real). If a couple had a quarrel, then give the “Deed of Surrender” as a sign of reconciliation - and so on and so forth.
You can choose a background, template, text and make such a gift yourself if there is no suitable finished product forspecific case. And if there is, but it doesn’t fit for some parameter, but there is no time to flip through the pages of online stores or go to real ones? If you have a sufficient level of sense of humor and "direct hands" in relation to "Photoshop", it will not be difficult to create your own unique comic certificates. Don't have Photoshop skills? Every third or fourth person will be able to do what you need, just find such a person among your friends, or take it as a sign from above that it's time to start mastering this program - it will come in handy in life.
What else will need to be done (more precisely, preferably, for better preservation), is to laminate your work. In fact, it turns out that this is a handmade gift, and your efforts should be appreciated an order of magnitude higher. By the way, the price will be about the same as just buying in the store. Perhaps even cheaper (although much cheaper already?). Therefore, if you have enough desire and creativity - go for it.
