DIY Summer Postcards. 

There are three different designs to choose from each featuring a different summer theme. You'll find sea shells (my personal favourite), sunglasses and a 'Hello Summer' oyster.

Some of these designs are a bit more detailed than the others so perfect for those who love more of a challenge while others are ideal for younger kids and teens,

You can send them to friends and family while you're on summer vacation, use them as invitations for a BBQ or pool party, a thank you note or simply to say hi and show appreciation to a special someone.

I've even used printable cards like these Christmas ones here as homemade gift tags. Tie them to a bottle of wine and you've got a fantastic BBQ hostess gift.

Free Printable Postcards.

One of my favourite things about printables is that with just a few clicks, you can download a cute design right from your home. Printing your own postcards is also way cheaper than buying them, especially when you want to send out a whole bunch.

The back of the postcard has a blank space on the left-hand side, allowing you to write your own message and a space for the address and a stamp on the other.

You can add your personal touch to each postcard. Add your own messages, doodles, or decorations to make each postcard uniquely yours. They make such fun snail mail. 

No need to head to the store or spend money on fancy cards. Brighten someone's day with a hand-coloured postcard instead!

Supplies:

1. Start by downloading the free template by signing up using your email address below. Print it out on white paper or a piece of card stock.

2. Cut out the postcards.

3. Fold in half. Run a bone folder or butter knife over the crease to make a sharp fold.

4. Glue the folded card together. Make sure to use a glue stick (no runny glue) so your postcard doesn't ripple.

6. Write your message on the back, pop on a stamp and mail it.

I love these postcards so much. They're the perfect way to send someone a little love this summer season!
