Some required details:

- Your postcard needs to be at least either piecedor appliqued plus whatever you want to add to that. If you add a lot of embellishment, you mayneed to enclose your handmade postcard in a clear mailing envelope (availableat the big box stores and online) in order for the USPS to handle it/mail itand so your postcard doesn’t get caught in their equipment.
