Claret DIY Pocketfold Envelopes, 270gsm 5x7" Portrait, with Pocket & fold-over Flap, Matching or Kraft Brown Envelopes, Burgundy

Quality Claret/Burgundy/Wine Red 5x7" pocketfold with matching Claret or Kraft brown envelopes for creating your own invitation pack. These are cut to size and pre-creased ready for easy assembling with either double-sided sticky tape (which we also sell) or glue. Please see below for the full list of available colours via other listings. Also available as a Mini A6 pocketfold or Large A5.

IMPORTANT NOTE: 5x7" cards do NOT fit into 5x7" pocketfolds as they are identical in size. Please read the SIZING section for measurements as these are not returnable. We always recommend purchasing a sample first to test.

You can have us do the fiddly job of gluing them for you (55p each). Please request a custom order for this. For samples, we’ll glue one per customer/order for free if requested.

A NOTE TO SHIPPING
Due to the way shipping is added on Etsy, it is not possible to set a shipping price that applies for a single sample as well as for a larger order of pocketfolds. For this reason, samples are priced very low as the shipping you will be charged makes up the cost of that sample. The shipping will be applied for each sample ordered. This is not an error. Please get in touch if you require more information.

SAMPLE
Either select one of the two Single Sample options from the drop-down menu or go to our SAMPLE DIY Pocketfold Envelopes listing in our shop: https://www.etsy.com/mx/listing/1053933782/sample-diy-pocketfold-envelope-wallets

Single Sample FLAT – This will come unglued for you to glue yourself

For all full orders, pocketfolds will be supplied flat. You can have us do the fiddly job of gluing them for you (55p each). Please request a custom order for this.

SIZING
When folded the portrait pocketfolds fit neatly into a 5x7" envelope. 5x7” cards to not fit inside as the size of the finished pocketfold is 5x7”. We do offer larger A5 pocketfolds if you prefer as well as Mini A6 and Oversize A^ pocketfolds. Here are some further measurements:

ASSEMBLING
Assembling requires nothing more than glue or double-sided sticky tape, time, and patience! We find the best way is to use double-sided sticky tape. Lay the pocketfold out on a flat surface with the smoother/good side up. Stick the tape onto each of the flap sides. Turn the pocketfold over and fold those 2 flaps in. Remove the strip on the sticky tape, fold the pocket up and press.
If using glue: Lay the pocketfold out on a flat surface with the smoother side down. Fold the 2 small flaps in and then fold the pocket up. Use the closed Pritt stick, lid down, to crisp the folded edges. This will make it easier when gluing. Open the pocket and apply glue to the 2 small, folded flaps. Fold the pocket back up and press together. Place a weight, such as some heavy books on it and leave it for a few minutes to allow the glue to dry.
Once dry you can glue your invitation to the central section and tuck any other cards into the newly created pocket. Fold the whole thing closed and finish with a button magnet, wax seal, twine & tag, or a sleeve. We can create personalised tags and sleeves and even the invitation cards. Please just get in touch with your requirements or check out our Pocketfold Invitation listings.

If this sounds like too much work for you, have us assemble them for you. Please request a custom order (55p each).
