Okay, I have no clue about this type of stuff, but I hope someone can help you. What a cute idea!
For not-so-designy folks, I'm sure you could layout something like this pretty simply in Word or Powerpoint. Do you hope to print them yourself on your home printer, print them at a copy shop, or send them to a printer? This will dictate the maximum size you can make it. Download some fonts you love (try dafont.com), play around a bit, use some clip art, print a few samples, I have confidence in you!
If your printer will let you print on 8.5x14" cardstock I think that is your best bet. You can get two prints per page, cutting along 14" side. Then you will need to trim 1 1/4" off the bottom to get 4.25" squares. If you don't want to trim the extra 1 1/4" off the bottom you will have 4 2/3" squares and will only be able to get one print per page. You can use a paper cutter with a scoring blade, or a bone folder to get nice folds in the cardstock. You can use 5" square envelopes, which appear to be common.
Alternatively, catprint.com will do custom sized prints for a reasonable amount.
I would actually go with 11x 17 paper, and make your card 5x15". This way it will fit into a standard 5.5" square envelope.
Ooh, thank you everyone! I don't have photoshop, so I think I'll look into this "gimp" program you mentioned. I'm not sure that my printer could handle printing them. It's a good printer, but I've never tried mass producing anything with it.
Any home printer recommendations? I just want to see if MY printer is mentioned/recommended.
Also, how do I dictate the size of the cards? I do think it's a good idea to print two invitations per piece of paper to save on costs.

Sooo....I've fallen in love with these cute, little STDs. I've already written up my "relationship timelines," so all I have to do is create the format to print them. Easy? Wrong!
