You may interpret your 4 holidays however you choose. Please make certain you indicate which holiday each card represents. Postcards should be unwritten and unstamped. They should be store bought only and of good quality. (No handmade/freebie/ad/zazzle/wall art-blank back).

Please do not use post-it notes on the postcards. I have had a few people tell me that some of them leave marks, therefore ruining the postcard!
