That will work, although it won't fold up very well. The target I work with is 14" but when you fold it up it fits in a pants pocket (its made with a one of those wire frames that you twist up to fold up). The cloth that is used for the surface is non-reflective, so you get consistent readings. But if you just want a card, you can find them in the back of Scott Kelby's books for Photoshop for Digital Photographers.
Cheers,
