Go to any print shop if you want individual cards. They all have left
over card stock in a variety of colors, glosses and weights. Most will
be happy to cut it for you to 3.5 x 5.5 or whatever size you want at
very reasonable prices. I have been getting these free for years and get
3 or 4 thousand blank cards at a time. I then run them through the
printer individually or in stacks depending on how many I need to print.
I have a number of cards that I have made in Logic including folded
cards with photos on all four sides. You can even find the stock that is
glossy on one side and matte finish on the other.
