How about taking computer snapshots of each card, arrange several at a time together in grid form, print them out on stiff glossy or matte photo paper, and then cut them out.
Actually, having them printed professionally may not be as expensive as I first thought. There are cheaper services like this one (though I do not know their quality):

Let me know if you are serious about actually printing them. If people are interested in that, I could prepare an image set specifically for that purpose. Though you would have to be a little patient.

TGS Solitaire 1.3 is available now. The most important change is that the card artwork is now separate from the main game. The decks will be downloaded automatically in the game, and you can also download the zipped decks containing the images manually if you like.

I've just poked through the image downloads. It's great to see them up close! Thanks for making those available 

Survival is never guaranteed.

I broke it. This is what happens when you do not check every change to those templates from which the site is rendered. Bad idea. But it's back again by now.

You're welcome.And now you can even input stuff with your keyboard, just in case you need to write anything onto a black board.

Now that we've got the save function, maybe now if we go to Central Peat Bogs. So maybe now if we go there with Millie, she'll take us somewhere if we get the directions right a lot of times?

But we don't have to go to some new place, it will be enough even if this place is familiar.

I guess, if I ever do place something to be found there, I should disable the save function in the central peat bogs. Otherwise this is going to be much too easy.
