Back of a Post Card, others can read what you are saying on it.

Sending a message to someone on a post card is usually because we don't have the time to sit long enough to spend the time writing a letter. With a post card, we can send a word or two plus a nice picture of the area we are in. The person receiving the post card enjoys it too, but you have to be a little careful, especially if you're a little shy, because of who might be reading these post cards before they finally get to the person they are going to. By using the steps below you don't have to worry about what you write. But, what's more important is that sending post cards this way is really, a lot of fun. It can be a little expensive because of the economy and the price of stamps too, but you should try this at least one time. I have had post cards sent to me this way and I have sent post cards this way and it really was fun and different.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • post Cards
  • Stamps
  • A draft of what you want to say day by day on your post cards.
  1. Step 1
    Write your draft letter first.
    Write your draft letter first.

    Write a draft of what you want to say to the person you're sending the post cards to. This is an example: This is my draft. Hi babe, I just wanted to let you know that I am missing you, and looking foreword to your tender kisses and warm and loving touch. I'm doing fine, but miss you so very much.

  2. Step 2
    Send 1st Day.
    Send 1st Day.

    On your first post card write, Hi babe, I just wanted to let you

  3. Step 3
    Send 2nd Day.
    Send 2nd Day.

    Second post card write, know that I am missing you, and looking foreword to your tender

  4. Step 4
    Send 3rd Day
    Send 3rd Day

    Third post card write, kisses and warm and loving

  5. Step 5
    Send 4th Day
    Send 4th Day

    Fourth post card write, touch. I'm doing fine, but

  6. Step 6
    Send 5th Day
    Send 5th Day

    Fifth post card write, miss you so very much.

    Love,
    Me

Tips & Warnings
  • Remember to hang on to your draft until you have finished, and each day you send a post card mark off what you wrote on it that day.
  • With saying just parts of pieces and parts of what you are going to say will be on different post cards, you can say just about anything your heart desires, and no one else will have any idea what you're talking about..
  • Buy all your post cards at one time and address and stamp them all at once, it will make it easier to get one card daily sent off.
  • You can save these post cards and make a collage with them, or place them in an album in order.
  • don't lose your draft. If you do lose your draft and don't remember what you said on the last one sent, don't worry, just send the next post card saying, I got to thinking of you so much that I forgot where I left off on the last card, then just start over with saying something new. It will all be good.
