    2. Colors - Gnomes

    3. Element - Movie

    4. Random - Building Blocks

June 2024 Life Is Sweet Paper Pumpkin Drink Mix Wrapper



Today's project is a drink mix wrapper made with a couple of products from the June 2024, Life Is Sweet Paper Pumpkin Kit. The lemon, stamped sentiment, ink, and twine came from the kit. 

This wrapper is cased from a YouTube Video by Chris Slogar of Buckeye Inklings. I had to change the measurements to fit my drink mix.

The Lemon Lolly base is 2" x 7", scored and folded up at 1 1/2", and punched with the retired Tag Topper Punch. The Summer Splash Designer Series Paper is 3" x 5", scored at 1 3/8", and 3 5/8". It's a bit bigger than the base to allow room for the drink mix. You only adhere the paper to the folded flap, and the back so that it forms a pocket. I added a couple of Bough Punched pieces to the front with glue dots, then added the lemon on Stampin' Dimensionals. The sentiment is also raised on Mini Dimensional's. I added three Summer Splash gems for a bit more pizzazz. It's a sweet, easy project.

Thanks for joining me today!

Thoughtful Journey Z-Fold Cards





The Thoughtful Journey 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper Pack is full of beautiful nature scenes in soft, pretty colors. I made a Z-Fold Card to maximize the use of this pretty paper. There are only very small scraps left from one piece.











Z-Fold Card Measurements:
Card Base: 5 1/2"x 8 1/2" (Score at 2 1/8", and 4 1/4")
Front Card Mat Layer: 4" x 5 1/4"
Front Panel Designer Series Paper Layer: 5 1/8" x 3 7/8"
Inside Left Designer Series Paper Layer: 5 1/4" x 1 7/8"
Inside Strip on Basic White Designer Series Paper Layer: 3/4" x 3 3/4"
Inside Basic White Card Layer: 5" x 3 3/4"



Z-Fold Cards are pretty easy to make as this design only takes one extra score line. The front panel can be almost any size, or shape. Try this fun fold soon, and let me know how it went. Thanks for joining me!
