I can only tell you what I did:
Right after Christmas a couple of years ago, Michael's had blank greeting cards with envelopes on for half price.
Folded they were about 5 x 7 inches.
Before folding, I printed a message on the inside, plus, in a small font and very near the bottom of the back side, an explanation of the photo I used.
Then I had a particular photo printed, cut the edges off with a paper cutter to give it a more pleasing proportion on the card, and glued it to the front of the card.
Simple, inexpensive, and the folks that received one, liked it.

I'd like to know too, JR1, "please" what?
One of my photo buddies has cards printed locally and has been making a pretty good run of it for over a decade.

You can get blanks to print from several sources. Here's one.

Thank you for a wonderful idea Esther. I think I'm going to have to try that. It would be much cheaper than trying to print my own on an inkjet printer.

I haven't tried it yet, but it's a place to look.
zazzle.com check the "Shop Departments"
section and you will see their cards dept.
They'll make them from your images.
Happy hunting.

Try Moo.com. They'll print post cards or greeting cards on great stock and their work is impeccable.
