Morning

Have tried a search but nothing comes up, so forgive me if this has been asked before.

Does anyone have any recommendations for pre-folded inkjet card paper. Basically looking to sell greeting cards of my images and want to put my new Pixma Pro100 to good use. I would prefer pre-folded as it saves the hassle of trying to fold the cards manually.

Thanks in advance.

I've used red river prefolded glossy prescored cards; however, they curled over time and essentially are poor for having a card stand up horizontally. This is because the score (fold) weakens the paper and results in the paper curling and the card will be be almost flat after several or so days.

Now I prefer cutting my own paper out of red river's 50 lb double sided matte and folding them myself. Makes it a more hand-made card. The paper is much stiffer that way too. Letter size paper cut in half is Invitation sized cards.

I have used a lot of the Strathmore folding cards. Prints nice in a regular desk top printer.

I purchased from there Dickblick (external link).
