    Check some of the gloss & matte cardstock for eco sol they have over at Graphic Resource Systems. I got the sample pack and it looks pretty good (the samples are Mutoh eco solvent printed). I'd print them in one piece with the back flipped up over the front so you could tent fold them to get...
