Summary: Great Paper But There's A More Economical Way...
Review: All the HP card papers are great. But if you make a lot of cards, there is a more economical way, while still getting the great look of glossy cards. I did this for my first photo card, because I had no card paper.Simply buy some high quality 8 1/2 x 11 photo paper--like the HP glossy or the Kodak Ultima. The bigger the pack you buy, the more money you'll be saving. Next, buy some colorful 8 1/2 x11 paper in bold or pastel colors--or both. Print the front of the card on the photo paper. Print the message of the card on a colored sheet that goes well with your card photo. Attach the colored sheet to your photo sheet--in the right direction of course--with either folded or double-sided scotch tape or permanent glue that will not show through the paper. Then, carefully fold in half...and you'll have a beautiful photo card! (To make a quarter fold card, just print all on the glossy photo paper side and fold.)What about envelopes? Okay, if there are any greeting card envelopes here at Amazon, I can't find them! But Office Depot carries Columbian greeting card envelopes in both half fold size and quarter fold size. The ones you'll need for the 8 1/2 x 11 paper is the half fold, and the Office Depot number on that is #317358. They carry them in the stores and online. A box of 100 is less than $10! (Staples apparently also has greeting card envelopes in colors.)As I said, HP card paper is great, and it's the easiest, quickest way to make a card. But if you make a lot of cards, it's just not economical to buy a box of 10 cards and envelopes...not to mention, you have to keep buying box after box!

Summary: I Love this Paper
Review: I don't know why hp doesn't put this paper in a larger size. 10 envelopes and 10 pages - I want to print all my cards on this paper - everything comes out gorgeous. This paper makes the cards look so professional as if you went to a card shop and bought them yourself. I received a sample of this paper in the mail and immediately bought 3 packs. A Great buy, I just wish there were more to a pack.

Review: This card makes a professional greeting card. I wish they would put together a package with more cards in it. Although it is expensive i feel its worth it.

Summary: Not enough of a good thing
Review: This paper is actually very good. I print on the HP1120C printer and the colours are fantastic on this medium. It is a little expensive and very inconvenient (only 10 to a pack). I have searched but cannot find larger packs. But for printing that card to a special someone, using the right software, this paper makes you look like a professional. Hallmark just might sue! :-)

Summary: Be creative
Review: With this fine product you can be creative and save a trip to the store to buy a card that is less personal.
