FCMA: 52WKSofPCs - #5 Gelli Printed

52 Weeks of Handmade Postcards Week 5 - Gelli Printed

Make a postcard for your partner using Gelli prints. Each postcard should be made on water color, Bristol paper or card stock for sturdiness. You don't have to have a Gelli Arts gelli plate to make this postcard - you can make a mono print on glass, plexiglass or any other slick surface.

The standard American size for post cards is:

"To qualify for mailing at the First-Class Mail postcard price, it must be: Rectangular. At least 3-1/2 inches high x 5 inches long x 0.007 inch thick. No more than 4-1/4 inches high x 6 inches long x 0.016 inches thick." (from USPS)

If you make a larger post card, you may have to pay more postage.
