In the transactional email code, I see this:
{{layout handle="sales_email_order_items" order=$order}}
{{var items_html}}
Which, I believe, refers to this template file:
/app/design/adminhtml/default/default/template/email/order/items.phtml
I've tried creating a new folder with our theme to avoid overwriting core files:
/app/design/our_theme/default/default/template/email/order/items.phtml
But this doesn't seem to work, is there a proper way to override this file without simply overwriting the core?

Actually it refers to a Layout XML handle you can find in the
sales.xml
file around line 268.There you can find the following tags
You can copy this to your own themes
local.xml
and edit whatever you need. In your case it would be resetting the template file like so:-
