Boxed set
People send me postcards all the time. My refrigerator is like a museum of other peoples’ vacations — allowing me to travel to exotic locations vicariously. I keep them not only for the scenic vistas, but sometimes there is a design aspect that I like for my own work: color combinations, placement of the subject matter, or unusual typefaces. The problem is that I run out of refrigerator display space way before I run out of postcards.
Problem solved: I discovered a CGI program on the web called Super Deluxe Tuckbox Template Maker by Craig P Forbes that generates custom tuck-boxes for you based on the dimensions you specify. You enter height, depth, width for your box and specify the size of paper you plan to use, and it generates a PDF template for you to print out and use. A tuckbox is the kind of box that a deck of cards comes in.
Suggestion: if you own Photoshop, you can open the PDF (Photoshop automatically rasterizes the file), and you can customize your template further. Add your own graphics, type, or some images to make your tuckbox your own.
