Disposable diaper changing pack

A distinctive composite article has a longitudinal, length dimension and a lateral, width dimension. The article includes a flexible outer shell portion having a shell length and a shell width. At least a portion of a flexible drape layer is substantially affixed to the shell portion, and the drape layer has a drape width which is larger than the shell width. Additionally, the drape layer may have a drape length which is larger than the shell length. The drape layer includes a first laterally extending fold line, a first longitudinally extending fold line and at least a second longitudinally extending fold line. The longitudinally extending fold lines provide for a laterally-folded drape width which is not more than the shell width. The drape layer may also include at least a second laterally extending fold line, and the laterally extending fold lines may also provide for a longitudinally-folded drape length which is not more than the shell length. At least one removable, unit component is contained and enveloped within the drape portion when the drape portion is folded. A closure mechanism holds the shell portion in a closed-package condition which substantially envelops the drape portion when the drape portion is folded. An article opening means can selectively defeat the closure means to provide access to the unit component.
