A wrapper for an absorbent article, including a wrapper material including at least one microapertured film layer. The wrapper material has opposite longitudinal sides between first and second ends, and is folded at a first fold axis such that the longitudinal sides are aligned with one another. The wrapper material is bonded along the aligned longitudinal sides to define a pouch having bonded sides and a size for carrying an individual absorbent article therein. The first end of the wrapper material is folded at a second fold axis back over onto a front surface of the pouch to define a flap, the flap having opposite sides bonded with the pouch sides.
