I ordered exact from cards and pockets, only because when you do custom sized paper they always throw in extras. So I ordered 125 pocketfolds, custom sized paper for the invites, the enclosure cards, and envelopes. For the ribbon I ordered the midori doubled face ribbon from 'from the earth' and it was cheaper than what was sold at cards and pockets for the 1 1/2 width ribbon.
Don't know if you thought about using rhinestone buckle slides, but if so, I ordered mine from China through alibaba.com and I paid .35 per piece for 1 inch round.
Good Luck!!! If you have any questions let me know.

Thanks for the info. Question, would you recommend ordering the custom size paper or the cardstock and just print/cut the paper oursevles. The only think i'm worried about ordering the custom size paper is how do you print them exacctly to line up?
