If you have purchased our vellum jackets alone without purchasing the matching wedding invitation then you will be responsible for folding and closing the jackets yourself.
Vellum jackets, when purchased alone, are shipped flat and unscored. Vellum is a fragile, plastic-like material that requires a delicate touch. To avoid cracking or breaking, gentle hand-folding is recommended and will produce beautiful results.
Our vellum jackets have been designed to create a slight overlap once folded. This will allow for various thicknesses of invitations and additional enclosure cards.
We highly recommend that you place your invitation onto the vellum and center it as best you can and then fold your vellum jacket around your invitation one side at a time making sure not to press too hard on the fold to cause cracking. you can then slide any additional enclosure cards, including RSVP, into the jacket from the top or bottom.
The vellum jacket will not stay closed on its own and will require twine, ribbon, a belly band or wax seal to keep it closed. Again, do not crease your jackets too hard or cracking will occur.
