Our group has got it into our heads that magical weapons ignore armor points, but we can't seem to find the source for that rule. Did we just make it up?

Yes you did. There is no such blanket rule.

Weapons created with Aethyric Arms (Azyr) ignore metal armor. Those created with Chamon not only ignore metal armor, they gain a bonus to Damage equal to the AP value of metal armor worn on the targeted location. And those created with Ulgu ignore all non magical AP. Other than that, no such rule exists, at least in the core rulebook.
