I had so much fun looking through this thread. Your creations are all so fantastic!! A real source of inspiration.

I enjoy drawing and painting on the backsides of my outgoing postcards too. That is so, so much fun, especially when you try and create art that suits the recipient’s interests and personality. For example, I painted this simple galaxy jar for a Postcrosser who likes galaxy theme. The dark blue sparkly paper on the back was also created by me. This card has been traveling for a few days and oh how I hope this PostCrosser smiles when he gets this!

Those are some awesome works! I especially love your drawings. You’re very talented.

Mailed out another official postcard today. Was jumping up and down of happiness because it went out to my favorite country! The recipient loves birds a lot, so I painted one for her. I also tried to squeeze in as much text as possible, because she had a really interesting profile and wanted to hear what the senders know about her country. I hope this makes her smile!! 🩷 I put in so much love.

Paper-cutting frenzy “I have no idea what I’m making” :sweat_smile:

…and then suddenly goes back to “I have no idea how to decorate” :melting_face:

These postcards had the address lines printed on the wrong side, so I decorated them to cover the lines!

Hello dear Postcrossers,

We’re still Newbies to everything and started only a few days ago.
We LOVE to look at all your pretty postcards, sent & received…and are wondering now how do they look from the other side?
Already learned that a lot of PCs use stickers or draw stuff on them.

Anything else you do to decorate your postcards, could we maybe see one or two for inspiration? :smiley:

Greetings from Germany,

Lara & Emelie
