Darice Heavyweight A7 Cards W/Envelopes (5.25"X7.25") 50/Pkg, White

I very much like the weight and quality of the blank cards. They will easily accommodate a 4X6 photo, which is my primary use of the cards. The envelops are of lesser weight but I do not think that matters in any significant way. Strangely, unlike the Ivory cards, the envelopes were not damaged by the plastic wrapping (see my review for Ivory cards and envelopes). A friend of mine found this product on the Amazon website and sent several packs to me. I then went to the website myself and ordered 10 more packs at a very reasonable price (under $6 per pack). The website told me they only had 8 packs available, so I ordered them. Somewhat later that day, or perhaps early the next day, I went back to the website and lo and behold! More white cards WERE available, for $2 more per pack. The current price is $9.92 (original was $5.98 or so). I know this is the way of business, but I was very disappointed to see business principles applied so quickly, almost as I was viewing the web site! Don't let that stop you from getting these cards - the price is still awfully good for 50 cards.

Bought these cards a couple times before. Their envelops are not fancy but rather cheap looking. However, the cards have been perfect. I use them for my kids to draw. The cheap envelops look great for using after they draw their art work. I did just buy two expensive versions of the similar cards with some other brands. One sets are brow cards... One sets have good paper envelops; but their cards are horrible...the paper is too smooth for drawing. The winner after all the investigation...is to stick with my original choice... It's is also cheaper...

When I made some birthday cards using my inkjet printer, I had no problems and the quality was pretty good. The ink didn't show through and I was able to print on both sides fine. The colors printed fine with no smearing. Make sure that you choose the correct paper type when printing so you get the best quality print out. The first time I choose a the wrong paper weight and the printer put more ink on the paper than it can handle - (it will show through, the colors will look bad, and the paper will buckle.) I made some Christmas cards using stamps, embossing powders and markers and they turned out nice, too. The cards are scored in the center for easy folding, and the color is a nice bright white. The envelopes (like others have said) are pretty flimsy. But for me, the envelope is not all that important and I don't run an envelope through my printer. True, the manufactures could improve on the envelopes, but overall they worked ok. For the price and convenience, I would definitely buy these again.

This paper was perfect for my decoupage project which I was able to finish prior to my deadline. It is of excellent weight and the fibres have bound tightly but not overso as not to be abole to reform when wet. I really appreciate the quantity of quality paper for a very reasonable price. Thank you.

I make cards to send troops oversees for them as well as I make ones for them to send back to their loved ones. I use stickers, stamps and applicators so I can't say how these go through a printer. The cards are GREAT stock for what I need them for! They are strong and sturdy. None of mine were cut wrongly nor did they have anything on them. Having said that I wish that I would have read the reviews better about the envelopes. They are very thin. I will be ordering different envelopes as there is no way they will make it to Afghanistan without ripping with the quality that they are now.

Perfect cards! Used as thank you cards, put a picture of my daughter on front and she colored inside for each person and I wrote a personal message thanking them for their gift and coming to her party! Some people complained about envelopes, but they worked just fine for us! Yea they were thin, but who cares! People usually keep whats inside, not the envelope! That usually is thrown out! I'll purchase again in future. Nice frugal way to do thank you cards!

Purchased these to make handmade notecards to sell on Etsy. We also bought another set of a different brand for comparison based on reviews. We wholeheartedly agree with other reviewers on the following points; the envelopes are useless - too thin and see through and not at all up to the quality expected, and very different from that of the cards. I wouldn't use them to sell anything I made by hand. We will use them personally and they'll be "fine" but their quality honestly stinks and we won't be buying them again, regardless of price or intended use. The cards are acceptable, but they don't stand up well (if you want to to display your card). This again is not of high enough quality for selling your work. They will work adequately for our personal use. If the envelopes worked, I might get the cards again for personal use if/when looking to get something adequate but less expensive and if I didn't need it to stand up for any reason. That said, they are not white but are slightly off white. If I could rate the envelopes and cards separately, the former would be a 1 (or less) and the latter would be a 2 or 3.

I think it's pretty decent quality blank white cards. We use to them make our own birthday cards instead of buying them at the store. It's cheaper this way, and my children and I get to craft together and make something for our friends and family. This is my 2nd purchase so I am happy with it.
