Yes, you can always make your own. But not having the gray color in the mix will give you a lot less helpful histogram info since you be missing the spike that represents the midtones. By the way there is a free black/gray/white card in the back of several of Scott Kelby's books. You can also print your own with an ink jet printer.
I use the 14" fold up one from Digital Vision:

which sells for $59 and comes with a one hour DVD which is very informative and takes you through a number of different lighting challenges.
