Great product for easy do-it-yourself thank you cards. I really like it that envelopes are included in the package. That means the envelopes will hold the cards and I don't have to go searching for separate envelopes and hope that the cards fit.
I create 30-40 personal cards a month and have found the Staples brand cardstock every bit as good as the more expensive brands. The Staples brand is far superior to the discount brands. The ink quality is good and the cards fold as they should.
I make photo cards to sell at craftfairs. Photo quality is better than most cards I've seen. Beautiful matte finish. Have used paper from professional photo paper companies and these are just as good.
I had bought another note card product but the surface was textured. I did not like the way it printed landscapes. I intended the cards to be given as gifts. I found these matte cards and they printed out very well. I did not have any problem taking them apart at all. If I had a preference though I would prefer a shiny photo surface for the front of the card and matte on the inside. Photos would print so much better.
I had bought note cards and didn't realize that they had a texture to them. Photos did not print as well as I expected. These cards are smooth and white and matte and photos print very well and I use them professionally as thank you cards. My big wish would be a card that has a photo paper on one side and then the photos would be even better. I also like this smaller size card.
