I use this corrector thing (I don’t know how to call it in English)
I’d call it a correction pen.
I’d say correction roller.
It will be like “alter tape” in Chinese, but I’ve never seen this thing when studying English… I thought that “it doesn’t exist in other countries” before…
Scratch it out and move on with writing the rest of the card. Simple as that.
I’d use some correction tape (that’s what I call that little thing!) or some correction fluid. Sometimes I use a little piece of label, too
But I don’t stress too much about it. Postcards are written by human beings, so a little error here or there is to be expected.
I generally use white-out to fix mistakes. If it’s something minor like a spelling or grammatical error I may leave it because no one is perfect, but names and addresses I want to be correct. Sometimes it takes a bit for the white-out to dry enough to write over but otherwise it works well.
I will just print or write my corrections on some paper, put double sided tape down place the paper on top, and because USPS is a “bit” rough with our cards I cover it with packing tape to secure it
I use correction tape I can refill - except the first one I bought this time because I can’t find the refill here but online.
I can also just transform the mistake when it can be done without looking like a scribble or just cross it out if I don’t have the correction tape.
About the mistakes when writing the address, correction tape again. But, on the squared shape postcard and when there are not the lines to write, I write the address on label address stickers I made with my cutting machine, so, I remove it carefully and put another one. I can put a blank sticker too.
These stickers are so beautiful!
I’ve actually taken to writing the address in permanent pen. If I mess up, I put stickers on it. I also tend to use permanent pen more often in the summer months.
I have a problem with my hand not always obeying my brain, resulting in a “typo.” I keep a bottle of white-out handy for such moments. It is still obvious I’ve made a correction, but i hope the recipient will not hold it against me.
