Making Trading Cards

I was going try to make trading cards for the family. With football season coming up i thought it would be a cool idea. I want to print on both sides. I have a few questions, What type of material do i use to print them out? I was trying to find something online that would answer that but i can't. I think i would use a cardstock type. When i got my sons baseball trading cards they were a nice thinkness and kinda snapped out which made it easy to get each card out. I would like something like that. If anyone can steer me in the right direction it would be greatly appreicated.

You want to use 16pt card stock (heavy weight). Here's a link to get you started.
