Supplies:
3M Scotch Adhesive Transfer Tape ATG 700 Dispenser. It holds 1/2 inch double sided tape.

I bought this at Michaels.

Blades (black is scorer, orange is cutter)

X-acto Knife (used to cut the 'v' shape for the pocket. I just made a template for a guide)

Paper:
I bought all my paper at Anchor Paper I found the paper I wanted and asked to get it in Parchment size (huge—size varies by color you purchase but roughly 28x40). Anchor Paper cut the dimensions Ineeded for a $8.00 cutting fee. I paid $16.00 (one cut for the border and one cut for the pocketfold). Each sheet cost $1.60.

I would suggest buying a sample of an invite you'd like to make and use that as your template.
Otherwise, I got my dimensions from Remote Assistance. My pocketfolds are a little longer than
this template because I wanted a slightly bigger pocket.
