FAQs

Can these be sent through the mail?

Yes, they are printed on high-quality cardstock specifically designed for mailing.

How many cards are included in the set?

The set contains 30 individual, unique postcards.

Are the postcards reusable?

Once sent, a postcard cannot be returned. However, the collection is designed to be a durable keepsake if you choose to frame them instead of mailing them.

What is the secret message feature?

The cards feature text hidden in a spot gloss finish that becomes visible when light reflects off the card surface at certain angles.

Is the portfolio cover reusable?

Yes, the portfolio cover acts as a storage sleeve to keep remaining cards protected.

Troubleshooting

Perforated edge is rough after removal

Use a small pair of precision scissors to gently trim the excess paper fiber from the edge of the card.

Spot gloss messages are hard to see

Hold the card at a 45-degree angle under a direct light source to make the reflective gloss more prominent.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality cardstock suitable for mailing
  • Iconic, bold design that captures the Emily the Strange aesthetic
  • Interactive spot gloss details add depth to the artwork
  • Great value with 30 distinct pieces of art
  • Compact portfolio design for easy storage

Cons

  • Perforations require care to prevent tearing the card edges
  • Portfolio binding may not lay flat for scanner use
  • Limited to black, white, and red color scheme

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your collection in pristine condition, store the portfolio in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the signature red tones over time. When removing a postcard, hold the portfolio cover firmly against a flat surface and gently tear along the perforation line; pulling at an angle may cause the card stock to fray. If you intend to mail the cards, ensure that your ink or marker is compatible with the matte finish of the cardstock to prevent smearing. No specialized maintenance is required, though the spot gloss areas may attract fingerprints over time, which can be easily wiped away with a dry, microfiber cloth.
