I just thought I would share the guidelines for the US postal service on requirements for sending postcards through the mail, if you make your own.

Postcard:
Length - 5 inch min to 6 inch max
Height - 3 1/2 inch min to 4 1/4 inch max

We found postcard paper we could print on uptown and then they were perforated (sp?) so that they just tore apart into 4 postcards.

Just thought it was a good piece of advice because one wedding we were invited to the girl made her own and they were so small we weren't even sure the post office would accept them...but I think they did...I'm not even sure!!

I used 8.5x11 cardstock and cut them into four rectangle pieces. They worked good, too.

That's what size the postcard paper is...I was just saying they had postcard paper (which i didn't know about till my mom brought it home)

Thanks though!
