Need Help - Pocket Fold Invitations

Post by cre8ting »

Hi! I am a recently engaged & Sure Cuts a Lot user... I could really use some help creating a svg file in order to make my invitations!

I have something like the attached in mind - size of invite probably 5x7 or so. Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? I really appreciate it!

I tried duplicating the pattern.. Before you open it in Scal remove the dotted lines in inkscape.. The picture attached shows the required measurements at the fold lines when you scor it.. You need a 24 " mat or you can break apart the pieces and add the extra 1/4 inch at each edge to glue together... The scored lines on the separate piece are the 1/4 inches allowed to glue on....

Happy cutting, I just finished making 100 of them, but not from the cut file. I bought them instead since I didn't have the paper size needed. It's so hard to find cardstock in that size with nice colors :x
