These business cards are use to use, and you can customize your cards any way you want. It’s good if you have a small amount of cards to make.

These work great as other reviewers have mentioned for small quantities. Plus I love that I can change up my design every time I run another batch.

An idea for you – I also bought the magnetic ink jet 8.5 x 11 paper and print this same design on that and carefully cut out the magnetic cards

While the quality of the paper itself was good- I used Avery’s online program to print my cards. The images on the cards were constantly off, and the page which allowed me to adjust the setting of how it printed did not work- Out of the 200 cards that I received- I will only be able to use about 50 of them. Every time that I tried to adjust settings it would not work. I’m sure it’s easier for those that have Microsoft Word- but I wouldn’t recommend the online template.

I spent the morning designing several business cards using microsoft publisher. I printed a test page that looked okay. Printed on the card stock and when I separated the cards discovered that the left and right margins were just off enough to screw up the edges. Top and bottom margins also had problems. 10 cards in the trash.

I then tried adjusting the margin settings. Unfortunately, getting one margin correctly set would inevitably cause the others to get misaligned. Ten more cards in the trash.

I then tried to download templates. No luck. Nothing for publisher. The blank templates for word looked like a nightmare to work with.

I then tried to design a few cards with their online service. Not a great program, but seems to work okay. I finally got cards to print that fit in the print area. Unfortunately, although the design looked okay on the screen the colors didn't contract enough on printed page to be able to read the font. Back to the drawing board.

Pro: Stock looks sharp, and the cards are very clean at the edges.
Cons: Very difficult and frustrating to actually use. Rating: 2 / 5

While the actual product may be of high quality I cannot by any means give this a review with more than one star due to the fact that my cards came damaged due to UPS mishandling the package. I was expecting amazon to ship the cards in either a Box or some other sturdy package, instead they shipped it in a cheap piece of plastic wrapping. The cards may still be usable, I will not know until my printer (also from Amazon) arrives tomorrow. Why they did not ship the two items together is a question that I would like answered...but more than likely won't have answered.

I will shop elsewhere for Business Cards, somewhere like Walmart or Avery.com.

Great quality, just don't order from Amazon.com unless you want to risk your business cards being damaged. Rating: 1 / 5
