Printing Greeting Cards - Which card?

LadyMorticia

Hey everyone. I'm really sorry if this is the wrong place to put this.:o

I'm a Photographer and want to print some of my photos onto greeting cards at home. However, I'm not sure which card to use for this as I'd need it to be glossy on the outside but matte on the inside so that it can be written in easily.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you.

Whenever I have made photo cards I use glossy paper especially for photographs but add an insert to the inside of just ordinary copy paper.
You can then add a verse or handwrite the inside. I run a glue stick up the centre of the card and add the insert. I would not use a prit stick as this glue seems to clumpy.

Thanks for the tip. Will have to find some photo paper that doesn't have branding on the back!
