How creative you are...

These are 4" x 6" and yes, you can mail them as long as they are not more than 1/8" thick and have the word "postcard" at the top on the back.

I have mailed such things many times and as long as you follow the rules, you can mail a bottle or a rubber plunger or other such things.

No you can't mail it with designs on both sides. Those are going to some local people that want them just to put on their desks.

Received my Valentine. On Valentines Day too. Hubby said WOW! LOOK AT THIS AWESOME CARD... Takes a lot to move him. It was talked about a bunch that day. They are sooo cute! Thank you for sending me one. Just love it. What a treat. Did they go over as well for you?

My card came today. Everyone at home and the postmaster fell in love with it and thought it was such a cool idea.
Thank You very much.

I would have liked to see the other side, minus the addresses or course. I have wanted to make these for ages and never did. It looks like I'm going to have to now!
