How to Print & Make These Postcards Look Authentic
If you want your postcards to look like true antiques, here are some easy ways to age them:
Best Paper for Printing
- Cream-colored or textured cardstock mimics old paper.
- Tea-stained or coffee-dyed paper gives an instant aged look.
- Matte photo paper enhances color but keeps a vintage feel.
Distressing & Aging Techniques
- Tea or coffee staining: Lightly brush or dip the edges in brewed tea/coffee for a worn effect.
- Distress ink: Apply brown or sepia distress ink around the edges for a faded, timeworn look.
- Crumpling & smoothing: Gently crumple the paper and then flatten it to mimic natural aging.
Printer Settings for a Soft, Faded Effect
- Lower the print opacity to 80-90% for a naturally faded look.
- Select “draft mode” for a slightly distressed, imperfect print.
- Experiment with sepia or grayscale tones to enhance the vintage aesthetic.
