One possibility might be to check out:

http://www.gacopper.com/CopperFoilTape.html

They advertise 1 inch wide copper foil tape with a conductive
adhesive made by 3M that is (apparently) equivalent to '1 oz' copper
foil. This, combined with one of the various grades of Kapton
(polyimide) film which can be purchased on eBay from:

http://stores.ebay.com/Paper-Street-Plastics (look under 'Other')

This may be helpful if you want to make flexible boards < 1 inch wide.
Other sources may provide wider material.
