Marnie -

I've used these - not ever in any great quantity.  The price for 10 in 
the shops here (Milwaukee) is about double the Dick Blick price.

The cards are 5x7 and take a 4x6 print very nicely. I use double sided 
tape to hold the print to the card so the recipient can remove the print 
and keep it if they want.  Around here you can get a decent 4x6 machine 
print for about $.30 so the cards end up costing about a buck each - and 
the cards aren't odd sized so you need extra postage.

If you *do* want to take the time to print the photo as well as the 
inside memorial stuff, they are ink-jet photo printable but it's 
probably more cost effective to use a lab print and tape or glue it to 
the card.
