You will not have as many minutes as you would have if you were calling within the States, obviously, but I think it's about 4:1.  For example, if you bought the card for a price of $.7/minute, calling from Spain would cost about $.28/minute.

You may be able to find better deals on Spanish calling cards, but this format might seem a bit more familiar.  Most other brands of American calling cards like Sprint or MCI will have a toll-free number to use when calling from a foreign country, just call and ask.
