I also started to make poster versions of the cards. I think some of the messages can be transfered into poster form.

The way we communicate/size changes
I relayed out some earlier drafts. They were set at 4 in w x 2.5 in h but I wanted to be able to send them in the mail. I set them now to 5 in w x 3.5 in h. The idea is that they would go in vellum or see through envelopes, but a piece of card stock or some material would go behind the "card" so that when you write the address it doesn't get confused with the text on the cards, and the card stock can provide a place for the sending to write a personal message if desired without interfering with the message on the card. Also, part of the message is revealed on one side of the envelope, but not for everyone to see. The recipient has to open the envelope to see what the full message is. With a postcard, you get the full message in the first reveal. With a card, you get very little of message with the first reveal/envelope upon arrival. This combination that I want to create will reveal some part of the message at first look but takes further opening to get the full story.
