My most recent one. As the person loves stamps, I attached two vintage stamps from the DDR, so from a time when germany was still divided. She also loved nature, so I included some flower stickers.
As you do not live in France and as your postcards/letters most likely travel with “Deutsche Post” you should follow their AGBs if you want your things to arrive. At least I would recommend it.
In some cases there is extra postage needed for example if you use a colorful envelope, because they can’t sort it with machines this way or if it’s too large or too small or quadratic…
This is for a tag where you draw or use stickers, washi etc to create a theme on the card that the person before you asked for.
The theme here was : the moon
Tomorrow I will send my first postcard with drawings on the back. Thanks to all of you for inspiration and encouraging!
So exciting
I’m new to the forum, and hapoy to find this section to show the backsides of the cards. I love snailmail and to decorate them with stamps, stickers, washi, etc. Don’t we all Just to make it a little party on the doormat for the receiver!

Absolutely love these!
I was inspired by @thetimp for this postcard with a little glued envelope and it really works fine. So happy for having found this possibility which allows to decorate, to use several stamps AND to write a bit more than three sentences
@TanjaK93
So glad I could inspire you Tanja and your card looks great. It’s so much fun being able to tell/write a bit more when sending a postcard, right?
Omg I NEED to try this. That’s absolutely genius
My decorated Akira backside finally arrived to @Steek ^^ It was so fun to draw, even though I had to simplified the original drawing to my skills
Wow!! You are so talented! This is amazing. What pens do you use btw? The last time I tried drawing on the card, it bled through the front
For outlines I use Faber-Castell multimark permanent (S) (this one - Best pens for writing on the back of shiny cards? - #7 by Xute) and for the colours just regular water-based markers for children (local brand) - maybe that’s why they don’t bleed through?
And as of this one is a cartoon of Indian classical dance (Bharatnatyam)… i did with markers and coloured pens…tried my very best …
I don’t understand why people don’t want home made cards. I am looking forward to getting one
