I haven't noticed anything like this - I do have one around here somewhere as my sis-in-law used these for her invites. If no one else responds, let me know and I will dig it out and create a file for you.

I have never seen one but they are cool. does the flap tuck in somewhere or do you "tape" it down? I am going to try to work on one from the pic ... but Lora is MORE than welcome to dig out the one from her SIL

I only have a personal so I can't cut it too big ... I hope it works!

Those look great - you beat me to the punch by a few minutes!

I have test cut mine and it works great - I'll go ahead and add it as the pocket shaping is just a little different and perhaps a softer angle on the pointed flap.

This .scut file is already sized and ready to cut.

To cut the inner cardstock pieces - the invite is 4.75 x 6.75 and the side cards are 3.75 inches wide - tallest is 6.75 and I made the others each 1" shorter than the previous one.

Thanks much guys...I tried making it by attaching a triangle to a rectangle but I could not get the edges of the triangle lined up flush with the rectangle even though they were the same width. What did I do wrong?

When trying to perfectly align objects, I select the objects I want to align and use the Object>Align and Distribute option from the menu.
