I've been making cards and stealing the envelopes from the boxes of sympathy and other cards I had lying around. I found and ordered 100 A7 (sized for 5x7 cards) envelopes - got 'em for $25 plus free shipping from Ebay. There were lots of colors and other sizes and quantities available. If anyone wants the info, send me a PM.

Thanks for the info. When I buy my blank 'cards' they come with envelopes. But this is good to know, just in case.

Another tip - if you go into your walmart or other similar store right after a holiday, visit the card section as the greeting card stockers pull the holiday cards and usually throw away the envelopes - I have gotten stacks and stacks of different colors and sizes that way ... nothing like a freebie!!
