Answer 3

Yes.  The proportions must be within a certain range, or a postage surcharge will apply.  The postal service web site will have all the details.

Answer 4

Yes you can make your own envelopes and you can draw pictures on them too. Just as long as you leave a border around the addresses. There are cards being sent every day in very small envlopes and also in oversized ones. You'll need a standard postage stamp. Postcards have lower postage.  :)

Answer 5

Yes, as long as you put the appropriate amount of postage on it.    Get it weighed at the post office.
