Very Nice, Simple but detailed. Thank you for all of your tips.  Did you get samples from paper and more or did you just order it ?

[JoanneIreland]

I just ordered without samples from Paper and More, and honestly I have no regrets. Quality was top notch and shipping time was very quick. I learned of Paper and More from this forum so it obviously had recommendations from previous brides. The paper looks way way way way better in person than in my pictures. Has a lovely subtle shimmer to it.

Hi, it's just card stock folded in 2 places to make 3 equal sections.

However, the cardstock I used was really thick (I think 120lb +) so there was no way I could get even and clean folds, it was just too thick. So when I was at Kinko's getting the invites printed the girl there mentioned the could "score" the pink cardstock for me which would give the nice clean folds. I can't remember how much it cost put it's included in the total price I list on page one. It was really cheap from what i remembered and for the hassle it saved me was worth every dime!

Once I got them home I just used a paper trimmer to put the slant on one side so when you opened the sleeve you could see part of the invite, then used EXTRA STRONG glue to stick the end closed. Again this card stock was so thick I had to experiment with different glues to ensure it held, and you really need strong stuff. Hope that helps!!
