- We use & recommend Helmar 450 Quick Dry Glue or Helmar Premium Craft Glue for gluing the tabs on the folding pouch (sold separately)
- Tip : When working with scored cards, the bump on the score (or fold line) is always the inside. When ready to fold, place on clean flat surface with bumps facing up and gently fold the card over and align the corners. Whilst holding the corners together, gently flatten out the fold. For best results, make the fold sharp by rubbing gently with the back of a clean spoon.
- The invitation panel is normally glued into the centre panel which accepts our standard 110x165mm Flat Cards as the insert and the right hand pocket can hold your 11b RSVP Envelopes for RSVP Cards in portrait format without folding. Naturally it can also hold multiple information cards, maps, wishing wells cards etc. (Inserts & envelopes sold separately)
- All of our 120x175mm Pocket Folds fit into our standard 5x7 Envelopes (130x185mm) and 5x7 Invitation Boxes (130x185mm), unless bulky decorations are used. Be careful if considering similar product from overseas as they are often a different size and obtaining envelopes to fit is difficult and relatively expensive in Australia. Ours are specifically designed to fit our standard envelopes & box sizes.
- This range of papers is laser compatible* and as a result it is the widely used for DIY wedding invitations and projects as many standard laser printers that can print on heavy card stock will produce beautiful results. Some have reported beautiful results with some inkjet printers but we don't recommend as ink performance differs greatly between brands and are slow to dry. Testing is strongly recommended for inkjet use.
