Printable Double Sided Gloss Greeting Cards — Half Fold, 80 lb. Cover, Inkjet & Laser
Every inch of the 8.5" x 11" sheet is coated for photo-quality gloss brilliance — front cover, back panel, and inside spread. Unlike standard cards with a plain matte interior, the double-sided gloss coating enables magazine-style layouts with high-resolution photo collages, vivid digital art, and deep saturated color across all four panels. The instant-dry heat-resistant coating works cleanly on both inkjet and laser printers.

Pro Tips
Design: Take advantage of the gloss coating on all four panels — use the inside spread for photo collages or digital art that standard matte cards can't match.
Printer Setting: Use Gloss Photo Paper or Heavyweight Cardstock mode for best ink adhesion and color saturation on 80 lb. gloss stock.
Hand Writing: For handwritten messages on the gloss interior, use a fine-tip permanent marker such as a Sharpie — standard ballpoint pens may not adhere to the gloss surface.
Retail Presentation: Slip finished cards into crystal clear bags for a polished retail or craft fair display — the double-sided gloss looks premium from every angle.
