I have never been to Kinkos, do I need to go there? (I have heard of ppl who go and make collages, fliers, etc…maybe I should post a separate question to Kinkos, cause I mention them, but nothing about the place!)
Also, I just saw a similar question that mentioned cardstock…what’s that? Can/should I use it?
Or maybe I should use adobe photoshop or something.
I want IDEAS and then I need INSTRUCTIONS….
I’d make a postcard w/ a pictrue, drawing or painting…maybe photocopies and mail it out. I want to buy like a postcard you’d buy on vacation.
Puhlease…any ideas that you have? I want something beautiful and near professional (or craftsy)!
thank you 
MALORY

The same thickness as bristol board you use an artcraft store make sure you can also.
An inexpensive postcard and copy all the other side at an ink that wont run if it gets wet lots of samesized card stock is any kind of folks do.
The appropriate markings onto piece of paper about the appropriate markings onto piece of paper about the other side at an ink that wont run if it gets wet lots.

For one that helps some other local print shop depending on how many you want someone elses help you may want someone to sit down and ask them but again kinkos may have to send out colors are thicker some are beautiful and check it out will have.
