Star Folded Cross
Send shining invitations with the Star Folded Cross. A designer product from Foldfactory, this cross fold looks like a standard envelope when closed and opens to a sharp, unexpected star shape. A perfect self-mailer for event promos, it’s one of those creative mailer ideas that actually pays off. Use our online printing services to design yours with insert cards for easy RSVPs - the top panel tucks into the bottom to secure on its own!

Trish’s Tip: “This format is carried by its unique perimeter shape and tucked closure, so you don’t need to overwhelm the angled panels with content. If you add content to the angled panels, add it on the final interior spread because this piece opens up quickly. The bottom panel can perform like a pocket, holding a light insert, which is a nice element if you have additional information to share.”
-Trish Witkowski, Foldfactory founder
