The Postcard Creator helps students learn to identify all the typical parts of a postcard, and then generate their own postcard messages by typing information into templates. Students fill in the address, details on the postcard's artwork, and the postcard message. The finished postcard can then be previewed, edited, and printed. After printing their texts, students can illustrate the front of their postcards in a variety of ways, including drawing a picture, creating a collage of images, or printing and pasting clipart in place.
The tool is easy to use, made even easier with the Postcard Planning Sheet, a printable PDF students can use to draft and revise their work before creating and printing their final postcards on the computer. See a completed sample Postcard based on Where the Wild Things Are for details on what a student's work might look like.

Look no further! I'm here to introduce you to MyCreativeShop's Postcard Creator, the ultimate tool that'll help you design stunning postcards for your business or personal use. Let's explore its amazing features together and learn how it can elevate your marketing game.
What makes our postcard creator stand out is its comprehensive design functionality, including the necessary mailing labels. Whether you're creating EDDM (Every Door Direct Mail) postcards or classic mail, we've got your back (of the postcard, that is!). Our postcard creator ensures your design looks great on both sides while taking care of the crucial mailing details.
We surveyed over 182 individuals regarding their postcard journey and 89% communicated that they were "not sure" when asked what to include for the mailing guide/label on the backside of the postcard. This is a huge barrier for people when they are evaluating designing their own postcards. When you design a postcard online with us, you'll never have to worry about whether or not you have the right mailing label.
Inside our postcard creator, you'll find Snippets, a collection of pre-built visual assets designed to make your life easier. With Snippets, you can quickly add elements like text, QR codes, images, and more to your postcards. Need a clear call to action? Use one of our CTA snippets to drive engagement and get results.
To access Snippets, just look for the feature in the insert panel of our postcard creator. With a wide variety of options available, you'll find the perfect elements to enhance your design and speed up your creative process.
Our postcard creator goes above and beyond with its built-in QR code generator. By adding a QR code to your postcard, you'll make it easy for your audience to access your website, landing page, or any other digital destination you desire. These codes are especially convenient for longer URLs that might be difficult to type in manually. Plus, QR codes can be tracked, providing valuable insights into your postcard's engagement.
Need inspiration? We've got you covered with thousands of postcard templates to spark your creativity. Customize these templates to suit your needs, with options for every industry. No matter what you're looking for, you'll find the perfect starting point for your postcard designs.
We offer multiple postcard sizes to fit your needs. If you're looking for EDDM postcards, you'll be happy to know that all of our EDDM postcards meet USPS requirements. The most popular size for EDDM is our 6.5" x 9" postcards, while the most popular size for classic mail-to-a-list campaigns is 6" x 9".
Remember, size matters! Don't sacrifice postcard size just to save a few bucks. A smaller 6" x 4" postcard may cost less, but it can also receive less attention in the mail, particularly if it gets covered by other mail pieces. Choose a size that ensures your design stands out and grabs your audience's attention.
