Decopatching with postcards

WeAreGhosts

is it possible to decopatch with postcards? does the fact they're shiny make any difference to the finish?

would i just use mod podge to seal them on the surface of the piece of furniture as normal?

Decopatch is easier and neater with thin paper; I'd be inclined to copy the postcards onto some low weight paper otherwise it might look a bit lumpy with odd layers of card. Not sure about the shiny issue as I've never used anything shiny in my experiments but can't imagine it'd be a problem.
