I noticed on the Save The Date thread that you were wondering about pocketfold invitations.I made my invitations by hand-- pocket folds. I LOVED www.cardsandpockets.com for the pocket folds, mats, invitation stock, and insert stock. They had great customer service (although I had to do some real follow-up with the custom-cut woman when it came to my custom-cut order for my inserts; in fairness to her, it was a little more complicated than the norm because it was stacked diagonally instead of simply vertically or horizontally).But they had GREAT deals on the stock and the pocketfolds. I think my invites came out to something like $1.84 each without the custom cut order-- and of course, because I made them myself, they were exactly what I wanted! Good luck!

    Oh, yes, in the thread below I should have mentioned the customer service is great!

    ** butting in... I don't actually have any pictures of my invitations, but I bought a pocketfold kit right at AC Moore. It was very affordable and I got so many compliments on my invites. The kit had all the components, we just had to come up with the wording and print each piece (the invite wording, the RSVP card, etc.). It was labor intensive, but definitely worthwhile in the end. :)

    Daniele - that's exactly how I feel too!  They were obnoxiously time consuming, but awesome and one year later I'm still getting comments on them from people!
