DIY Summer Postcard

Summer vacation can be the most memorable time of the year. Take advantage of the memories you are making by creating your own postcard series! Show your friends and loved ones where you are spending your holidays by recording your memories and illustrating your travels.

The Basics

Although your postcards don’t have to follow certain guidelines, make sure you use paper that is sturdy rather than flimsy so they can last a while!

Content Tips

When writing your letters, include the best parts of your summer holidays! Tell your loved ones your favourite memories, experiences and things you are looking forward to this summer!

Get Creative

When you’ve finished your letter, now it’s time to add some summer fun! Add in doodles with your Paper Mate Flair Pens to make your postcards POP!

Address It

After decorating, it’s time to send your postcard! Your recipient’s address goes in the middle of the envelope or on the back of the card. Write your address in the top left-hand corner and stick a stamp in the top right.

Make sure your postcard is properly addressed to reach your loved ones this summer!
