These are gum packets to include with each new catalog. I was planning an Open House but my Nicholas made the All Stars team in baseball and we don't have a single weekend free the whole month of July! I'll be sending out an e-mail to my customers and stamp club girls letting them know when they can come by to pick up their own copy. I'm expecting my shipment of catalogs this week!!!
Edited To Add:
You guys crack me up! I've had 22 e-mails wanting to know how I made this plus a couple comments have asked too.
Guys...I just traced the gum wrapper ☺ Easy peasy!!!
The photo shows the brand of gum I used, I literally traced the wrapper. If you want to get technical, the measurements are as follows but I will tell you that each pack of gum is ever-so-slightly different.
Cut cardstock to 4" x 5-3/4". Score at 2-1/2", 2-3/4", 5-1/4" and 5-1/2". That leaves you about a 1/4" flap to adhesive the thing closed. I used my 1" Circle Punch to make a half circle on one end. I stamped the 'for you' on cardstock and punched it out with the Round Tab Punch. Fold it in half and trim the rounded part off with scissors. The colors I used for this project are Tempting Turquoise, Ruby Red, so Saffron and Whisper White. The stamp set is the new 2nd Level Hostess Set called The More The Merrier.
