Hi everyone~this is two sheets of cardstock type paper glued on three sides to make a folder~opening at the top. I used Graphic45 and some Kraft cardstock to make this one. It is glued with Helmar 450 Quick Dry!! Next you will see why I made it this way~
Bottom half close up~
My son gave my husband a box full of candies from the 60's as a gag gift. Him and I both remembered the candies and of course have our favorites, so I wanted to save the wrappers. That is where the folder comes in~
Just pull out the two 6" X 10" cardstock files and you have the labels to see!! I also used Tim Holtz, twine, buttons, American Craft's thickers and several different border punches.

WOW! Such a great idea to save "vintage" candy wrappers (did I just write that?! SIGH...) in a clever project :)
This is such a cute idea!!!

You always make the coolest stuff, Connie! I see a Chuckles wrapper peeking out. One of my old-time faves. Thankfully you can still get them today. :)
this is such a neat idea. I love the pocket page with your little bit of memories. I love this idea, would love to copy unfortunately I ate all my candy back in the 60's. LOL
Very cool! Reminds me of one of Shimelle's 4x6 photo love classes too. I love using this to incorporate the candy wrapper!

Great idea and layout!

This is so cool, Connie! I love the wrappers...I remember those. :)
This is such a fun project. What a great idea.
Oh Connie, I loved the folder and how "sweet" (pun intended) that you saved the wrappers. I would have saved them also, but not in such a clever folder as you made! Love Penny Scrap-aholic@blogspot.com
