Original Abstract Submitted
A sheet assembly can be cut into one or more cards. The sheet assembly includes an upper layer configured to receive a first printing of first indicia for the one or more cards. The sheet assembly may further include a core coupled with the upper layer and a lower layer configured to receive a second printing of second indicia for the one or more cards. The lower layer is coupled with the core with the core disposed between the upper sheet and the lower sheet. One or more of the upper layer, the core, or the lower layer is formed from paper impregnated with a resin that includes a biobased resin.
