Re: Putting/Put together your own Pocketfold invites...anyone?
i've been in love with the pocketfold invite, too!
i'm a DIY-er, and an art school grad--here's what i recommend---go to Kate's paper--buy the materials so you can make 3 at home. Kate is by far--THE MOST EXPENSIVE place to buy these--but if you work in the city, it might be faster to go to Kate's than to order samples online.
A site where i have received the best quote so far, is: www.montageinvitations.com
i plan on printing all the pieces myself and designing everything too. For 200 invites, including postage costs, it comes right under $500 <$496 to be exact>
The only other incremental cost will be printer cartridges for my home printer.
I've done a lot of research on pocketfolds--FM me if you have any other questions!

Re: Putting/Put together your own Pocketfold invites...anyone?
I too became obsessed with pocketfold invites from envelopments. I researched this a lot. Mygastby.com is a great site. They'll send you samples and you get to see so mnay of the colors. I priced it out on several websites and even with me assembling them, they'd be really expensive. I found another company, Paper Prince, that I'll have to either get printed at Kinko's or print myself. They were about $400. I really wish I could have gottten the envelopements but in reality, everyone eventually throws them away! I just coulnd't justify for myself. These, with a little customization and work, will be a great sustitute. I added a pic so that you can get an idea. The colors are a bit differnet in person butyou get the idea.
