So here are the postcards I just had printed up. I think they turned out really great. To design them I used
GIMP an open source image editor that's a lot like photoshop, I did it from scratch but you can find templates online to help you.
What are the postcards for?
- Contacting potential clients
- Sending with certain orders
- Posting as mini posters
- Used as a mini brochure
- Hand out at shows
I'm sure the list will get longer as I think of more uses. The postcards cost me about $0.14 a piece so it's a pretty good deal. If I had gone with customizing one of the default designs at Vistaprint and not uploaded a backside too they would have been even less.
Overall a very affordable bit of promotional material that looks great.

Those do look great! I got my business cards from Vistaprint when they had a special offer so they hardly cost anything. I might try and design something a bit more professional looking, like yours are! : )
