    I was wondering where I can get cheap bulk paper to make my invitations (whether it be a local store or a website). I am leaning towards making pocketfold envelopments for the invites which will require bigger sheets of paper, rather than the standard size. Any help/tip is greatly appreciated:-)

    I bought the paper for my invites at Staples.  I bought their ivory cardstock.  For my pocketfolds I bought 19''x25.5'' artist's charcoal paper from Michael's.  I then cut it into 5 strips that were each 5'' x 19'' and used each strip to make a pocketfold.  I have a tutorial for it on my blog.  http://ilovewedplans.livejournal.com/1265.html

    I bought all my paper for my invites and the envelopes at Paper Express locally, I'm not sure if there are any more but the store is AWESOME. Online you can buy everything you need to make pocketfold invites at http://cardsandpockets.com.

    i don't remember where i bought my paper, but i do suggest buying all your paper bigger and cutting it down yourself. it's cheaper that way and you can go to kinkos and cut it yourself for free.

    I bought by bulk cardstock (white 110lb) at Office Depot (or is that office max?) for $8 for 250 sheets. When I was going to make my own pocketfolds (before I found them on sale for cheaper!) I was buying 19"x25.5" sheets of paper at my local artist supply store. It was $1.60 for 1 sheet which yielded 5 pocketfolds. The local artist store had a million colors and hues. I also got a student discount (so, if you go this route, ask about that at your artist store! You never know!).
