HELP...DIY Pocketfold invites

Ok...I really want to do pocketfold invites but they are out of my budget. I would like to try DIY ones that look like the one below. Where do I start? What do I need? Where can I buy the materials, etc? I'm totally clueless and would be forever greatful for ANY help anyone can give me! TIA!

Re: HELP...DIY Pocketfold invites

ok. first question: what size do you want your pocketfolds to be??

this will determine a lot.

the supplies that you will need are as follows:
cardstock for the actual pocketfold (size depends on size of pocketfolds)
cardstock for the inserts
a paper cutter (preferably a rotary cutter) that has a scoring blade
double-sided tape

you'll also need a way to keep them close
outer envelope and inner (rsvp) envelope



there is also the option of PARTIALLY DIY'ING your pocketfolds. this is what i did.

fm me if you need more info

i might also be able to help you put them together

good luck
