Cardstock Options for 3x3 Cards

- 16pt C2S (Matte Coating) – Same thickness as the gloss option, with a smooth matte finish and no UV coating.
- 18pt C1S (UV Front Only) – Extra-thick card stock with a glossy UV-coated front and an uncoated back, ideal for writing.
Understanding C1S vs C2S Paper
Card stock is commonly described as C1S (coated on one side) or C2S (coated on two sides). C1S paper has a coating on the front only, while C2S paper is coated on both sides. Coatings may include gloss, matte, or UV finishes, each affecting durability, texture, and appearance.
