An Post (the Irish Postal service) are inviting anyone and everyone to design their own postcard as part of a large exhibition that will tour Ireland in 2009. The idea is to design and make a postcard then send the card to An Post. The design can be absolutely anything and this sounds like a great opportunity for anyone interested in graphic design or art to get their work seen. Here’s an example of a previously designed card;
I’m definitely going to put together a few designs myself and send them on. This involves something I haven’t done for a long time – buying a few stamps!! You can find more details here on the An Post C Both Sides website.

I think so too, you can design it the way you like. Flowers, landscapes, animals, no limits for your phantasy.

That is such a cool idea.
I’m going to do something in photoshop.
Maybe a picture of a mug of beer with a four leaf clover coming out… as though the clover was a lemon?
Or maybe the clover is like a lilly, floating on the surface?

@Adam >> I think it’d be great to see a clover floating on the head of a certain stout beer

I think that designing your own postcards, especially holiday cards, sounds like a lot of fun! The possibilities are endless- people, landscapes, flowers, holiday rituals and symbols, the list goes on and on!
