    Okay ladies, it's invite time!! We've gotta get started on them and I'm hitting some road blocks. I wont bore you with all the details, but here's where we're at now.

    I do a lot of graphic design, so we've decided I would like to design it and print out the actual invite, as well as direction and reply postcards. We have found these invite pieces places, but we'd like to put them in a pocket...like a "pocket folio" or whatever. You girls live in wedding world, you know what I mean :)

    Everywhere I look they are SO expensive! I cant find any reasonably priced ones anywhere. I just want blank pockets! I dont even care so much what size, I can be flexible.
    Do you know where I can find these?? I'm hoping not to have to make the pockets myself, so I'm trying to find it somewhere pre-made. Help! :)

    They are expensive everywhere, but if you can get a good deal on some paper, here is a DIY link to make your own.

    I used www.cardsandpockets.com

    Most are 98 cents each, but we went with a metallic one so they were $1.38 each... but if you catch them at a good time sometimes random ones will go on sale.

    When I did my research paperandmore.com had the cheapest pocketfolds.

    I've ordered samples from Cards & Pockets, and PaperandMore.  I think for the actual pockets I'm going to go with Paperandmore, since I want metallic and paperandmore is quite a bit cheaper for them

    I ordered mine from www.cutcardstock.com for $.90 each! That was the cheapest I could find for the specific metallic pockets I was looking for.
