I print my cards on 110 weight card stock paper. I think it is the heaviest card stock that I can make word in my printer. It is still paper, but it is rigid and works fine.
Then I place all my spell cards in card sleeves. I do not use the cheaply made thin card sleeves. I use the higher quality card sleeves that are a little bit thicker and more rigid. Usually I use Upper Deck card sleeves, but there are others just as good. (Note: I do not use the rigid plastic top loaders -- that would be overkill, but I suppose it is an option). Between the card stock and the thicker card sleeve, they work perfectly.
For the larger oversized card formats, I just print on card stock and do nothing else extra. I've seen post card sized sleeves before, but not often enough to consider using them.
I tend to sprint entire spellbooks by class, so I have a collectible card box I use to hold the spell library. Players can build their own small spelldecks and placed them in a smaller card box. I do not want to make the cards too thick because then some players will have a hard time getting all their cards into the box, especially the divine classes which has access to ALL the spells at each rest/prayer session, and the wizards at higher levels when they have a large spell collection as they are want to do.
