    I've been looking for sleeves in the perfect color and can't seem to find them....I've seen so many DIY pocketfolds, and just wondering if anyone has made the flat sleeves?? Anyone have a tutorial or guidline or anything? Thanks bees!

    You could try using a DIY CD sleeve as a way to do what you are looking. You could try this.

    Or try seaching diy cd sleeves.  Just a suggestion I hope it helps.

    I made jackets for mine but not sleeves. It can be tedious, good luck!

    There are a couple diy's for pocketfolds on the diy section of the site.

    I personally ordered mine from cards and pockets for 95 cents each.  They are matte black, and my outer envelopes are a metallic white and they were 17 cents each.

    Thanks for the input ladies! I'l try searching out the cd sleeves. If that doesn't work, I'll just have to search out a sample, take it apart and try to copy it! Thanks again!

    Didn't Miss Dachshund just do these?  I think she just posted about them last week.

    I made sleeves for my invitations, similar to what Miss Dachshund did.  If that's what you're looking for, you can pm me and I'll give you more detailed instructions for what I did.  Just to let you know now, they're a lot of work!!
