2 Great Apps to Send Cards to Your Kids & Family This Summer (No Stamp Required)! by Christine Jones

Here we go again! Another camp and study abroad season has begun! One of the many great parts of summer programs is receiving letters from mom and dad. These apps make sending physical cards so much easier:

• Postagram: This app lets you feature a photo from your camera roll and a personalized message on a postcard, and they’ll send it for you. Once you download the app, choose from several different templates, then add a funny family photo or a cute one of the family pet. Type a message to accompany the picture and have it sent to your child. The photo is perforated so that it can be popped out of the card and displayed by their bed.
• Ink Cards: Similar to Postagram, this app allows you to turn your photos into personalized cards. The main difference is that with INK you can choose from over 500 designer cards and some formats allow for multiple photos. You can choose to send a traditional postcard, a heavyweight flat-lay card with an envelope or you can create a pack of cards. It’s so easy to just snap a photo when you’re out and about and see something cool that your kids would like (like these sports cars we saw on the streets of London) and send them a quick note!
