Re: for diy'ers: where did you buy cardstock and materials?

I bought black linen paper from Neenah Paper and made the pocketfolds.

For the printed invite part (that gets glued to the pocketfold) I used a printer in Maryland that I found off the internet (minutemen press). For 150 printed invites with black ink and cutting the paper to the size I needed, she cost about 37 dollars (and they came out beautifully! )

I went to Michaels and bought the rest of the card stock for the insert cards.

I also bought a double sided adhesive tape roller at AC Moore for like 5 bucks (it was crap. Tombo I think)

I bought the ribbon to wrap around the outside of the pocketfold at AC Moore it cost about a dollar for 4 rolls.

I am hoping to get envelopes at Envelopemall.com they seemed very inexpensive...

With the leftover materials I plan to make the place cards and programs.

i got the pocketfolds from cardsandpockets and the paper from paperandmore. for a small fee they cut the paper to any size you want.

I have one master sample of my invites and will be ordering all the supplies for 100 invites as follows:

Pocketfolds from CardsandPockets
Invitation and inserts from CardsandPockets (metallic white)
Blue matte from Target (in store - their scrapbooking section!)

The invites and inserts come pre-cut from CardsandPockets.

The matte comes in 12x12 size and I just cut it into 4 equal pieces (with a little left over) for the matte (I am using the square 6x6 pocketfolds).
