Postcards Pack "Creative Freedom" with blank cards

I took up painting with watercolours about 18 months ago as a form of relaxation. I’d wanted some postcard sized paper to paint on, so these were perfect size. The paper feels more like cardboard, so I was worried my water-colours wouldn’t blend well. I was really surprised to find that they still worked well and was pleased with how they looked. Acrylic paints stick well, and brush pens (although they need a little extra time to dry than on normal paper). These have a good thickness and are neatly cut – plain on the front and the back has a printed line and box for a stamp. The paper does start to bend if it gets too wet, so with paint, it’s better for smaller designs rather than painting edge-to-edge.

Nice idea to have some pre cut and back printed postcards for your own designs...no more donkeys and deck chairs..you can paint you own masterpiece...or get the kids to go wild with those crayons. Good quality white card with the printed side divided into two one side for address and one side for the message...I guess you could just write a very long message on the front ...and carry it over..... I think slightly different size than you usual picture postcard...a bit more space to get arty. They come in a sturdy box which is useful for storing them until ready....

If you're looking for plain post cards then these are fine but they're not good quality thick card. On one side is a centre divide and space for a stamp. I didn't like them for painting on with acrylics because the card would buckle as it got wet so it wouldn't suit watercolour painting. With pens they didn't bleed or smudge - I tries a variety from Sharpies to BIC pens. None of these bled through to the other side either. They'd be fine for using with coloured pens or pencils.

I love these postcards and they are a brilliant addition to my crafting box. Painting is one of my hobbies and these are perfect for when I go away. I can paint the scenery on my holiday and send the postcard to friends and family. It's a beautiful way of adding that personal touch. The postcards are a good thickness and support different media. So far I've used acrylic and water paints, both of which have been successful.

These are just blank cards. A bit expensive but very good quality. You can use them for whatever you want really. A good size for most uses.
