Greeting Card Stock December 25, 2008 Avery/American Greetings Half Fold Blank Cards This package included envelopes, which I didn't need.
The Brand to Use December 15, 2008 While I have used many a brand, and used to love the Hallmark Brand of card stock (they are now owned by Nova), this has become the brand to use. Any decently-made card will require a "high" quality from your printer for high quality graphics and will lay down a considerable amount of ink. If you want to do your own cards and save ink, lower the quality of graphics (to cartoonish clip art) and printer settings to "normal" and you'll have a ho-hum card. If your want Hallmark quality, either spend $5 at the store for a card or be prepared to spend some money on ink and paper. If the receiver of your cards just throws all cards out in two seconds, buy a cheap store-bought non-Hallmark card. If they cherish cards, then the extra money is worth it, whether a retail Hallmark card or the time and cost of something more personal.
I knocked down a star because I like the glossy stock, and this model isn't it. Glossy will show off your photos better IMHO, but matte does a fine job too, if your settings are on MATTE (hint to the reviewer down below: one doesn't stick in matte card stock and set the printer on "plain paper").
Waste of Money December 11, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I ordered these, initially, because I wanted to create professional looking cards. This is nothing but 8 1/2 x 11 cheap card stock with some envelopes. I tried to put a photo on one, selecting regular paper instead of photo paper, since photo paper it is not, and it still sucked up so much ink it practically drained my cartridges.
It's okay for putting little clip art things on it, I guess, if you want something that looks like consumer home-made stuff, but If you're expecting that they are the size of greeting cards and will have the look of a greeting card, don't bother. For this, you can go out and buy some nicer textured card stock and matching envelopes or whatever, and you'd have a better looking product for less cost.
Cheap stuff.

If you like to do your own cards, this is what you want. Easy to use. Great item.
Definitely where home card makers should start May 16, 2000 18 out of 19 found this review helpful
While this product comes in more interesting paper types--and heavier card stock--this is clearly the preferred card style for home card makers. Vastly superior to their quarter-fold counterparts, half-fold cards are what you'll usually find commercially in card shops. Though they do fold to a somewhat larger-than Hallmark (tm) size, the after-folding allignment is dead-on, and you have more room to express yourself. If approximating the look and feel of a 'real' store-bought card is important to you, therefore, go with this format. However, I'm partial to more textured card-stocks--Hewlett Packard makes an excellent 'felt' ivory--so I have to drop the rating for this one down a star for its white blandness.
