How to Make Faux Postage Travel Cards

June 19, 2025 by Heather Holbrook

How to Make Faux Postage Travel Cards

Yana used products from Waffle Flower to create an amazing collection of travel cards with trendy faux postage styles. Starting with white cardstock and a stencil that has different square and rectangle openings she used bright and bold ink pad colors and ink blended the background sections. Next using black ink she stamped the silhouette images of tropical trees, birds, boats and beachy designs along with faux cancellation marks and postage prices. Next she used coordinating dies to cut the postage edges, notice how some stamp sheets were kept together while others she tore apart.

She sharing a video tutorial on how to create these trendy travel postage card designs over on the Yana Smakula blog.
