30 Creative Postcard Design Ideas

Postcards. What comes to your mind when you think about postcards? Perhaps you are thinking of those long ago days when a postcard came to your house from a relative or friend who was visiting some place on vacation. Indeed, that is what we have come to associate the word ‘postcard’ with. Small cards with a picture or a photo with an interesting caption on the front and a space to write on at the back.

But lo and behold, the present has changed all that. Postcards, like other forms of mailing and communication, has also taken a diverse change both in form and function, evident in postcard design and postcard printing of contemporary postcards. And that is what we will be talking to you about in today’s post about postcard designs and postcard printing.

For a designer, postcard designs are like candy. They are so much fun to make, they look cool, and what’s more they’re handy, concise and can be kept as souvenirs or mementos as well as a tool of very effective marketing and publicizing. We shared a post with you about Rack Card designs earlier, well, post card designs are a bit similar, but more concise and compact, without losing any of their effectiveness or charm.

They are such pretty things to look at and admire, who wouldn’t want to keep one for safekeeping?

Modern postcards come in a variety of shapes and sizes, colours, textures, texts and designs and an even vast variety of purposes – for advertising, marketing, personal communication, public service messages, business communication, etc. Therefore, postcard designs and postcard printing have both changed over the course of time to suit the needs of its purpose.

    Very Nice Designs! You helped me make up my mind!

  2. I love that Google Classic postcard! I heard they actually send you the results back, which is hilarious. Something I look for in postcard design is how the front of the card grabs attention and makes me want to flip it over. That “To Dry For” card does it for me better than any other card on this list. Great collection!
