Hello
I having been frantically surfing websites for the following injet
paper
- Double sided gloss
- Weight anything > 90lb
- letter
I am looking for cardstock or paper that is similar to the Magic the
gathering cards. My kids want me to print them there own collection of
cards based on our personal set of photos. I found brocher double
sided glossy paper but that is too flimsy.
Appreciate any recommendations to where I can purchase this.

Would laminating not be acceptable?

You might also look at Red River's 2-sided glossy papers. I have used the
55lb. Premium Glossy and find it to be pretty rigid and substantial. Would
expect the 68lb. to be even more so. They do have sample kits containing all
of their papers--or, perhaps contacting them for info and samples of only
those papers would be helpful. (Clicking on the "Sample Kits" tab provides
an e-mail option. Many places would let you purchase a small sample of the
papers that interest you--I've heard that some even offer them free.)
Assume you're aware that not all printers can handle those heavy
papers--they usually require a rear feed paper path.
