If its a template file you are trying to put them into you will need to put the code into a function and display it like:

<?php echo do_shortcode( '[contact-form-7 id="448" title="Contact"]' ); ?>

I am guessing you have it all sorted by now though as I have just checked when this was posted.

Short codes are as simple or as complex as you intend them to be. Also they can solve some pretty annoying problems and add a lot of functionality for your users. One thing I always use a short code for is embedding YouTube videos and media of the same format.

Here are some links that may help you:
