Vertical gift bag, called the 2, 5, 7, 10 box. Take an 8-1/2″ x 11″ piece of card stock and you can stamp an all-over design now or after you score. As the name implies, score the card stock at 2″, 5″, 7″, and 10″ on the 11″ side. Rotate it 90 degrees and sore at 2″ and 7″. see the picture below for reference.
The dashed lines are score lines, the solid lines are cut lines. Cut off the 3 pieces with the x in them. Cut on the lines on the 1-1/2″ tall pieces at the bottom. Note where the front panel is located and the flap on the back side that will come to the front. If you have not stamped yet, stamp before assembling the box.
Add a strong double-sided tape as shown. Before adhering the box, at the top on the two 2″ sides, score from the top down about 1-1/2″ – 2″. This will help pinch the sides at the top. Punch two holes in the flap, pretty high up from the edge. If you like, round the corners of the flap or use decorative scissors on it. Close the flap, and mark the holes on the base through the holes in the flap. Cut about 15″ of ribbon to tie it together. Overlap the back and front bottom flaps over the two side flaps and use strong adhesive to seal.

The key to this card is to rotate the cut & scored base so it looks like this. It can be rotated either direction. Add then DSP pieces and the small piece for your message or add decoration to the “backside” of the part that stands up.

Colored Card Stock A: – 1 piece 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, score on long side @ 4-1/4 OR– 1 piece 4-1/4 x 11, score on long side @ 5-1/2 (You can make this card on just a 5-1/2 x 4-1/4 base) – 1 @ 3-1/4 x 4-1/2.

This is a Tab Slider card. It may also be called a Double Slider card, but those are usually a little different. Adhere the DSP to the complimentary cardstock for the card front. Do NOT adhere to the card base. Measure in about 3/4″ from the left side of this panel. Measure down 1″ from the top and up 1″ from the bottom along that 3/4″ inset from the side. Draw a line from top to bottom. If you are not using black or really dark complimentary cardstock, you can draw this line on the back of the panel. Use the line to guide where you punch or cut out the slot. This needs to be the width of a dimensional. Now punch a 1/2 circle at the top of the panel. It can be centered or offset to the right. ALTERNATIVE: Center the slot if you are using a large image to slide on the front.
Now, center the slider piece of cardstock (3-1/4 x 4-1/2) same color as the base at the top and on the backside of the panel. Punch a hole for the ribbon to show in the semicircle. Decorate the front of the slider panel. About the top 2/3 of the slider will be visible. Tie a ribbon through the hole. Center the slider on the back of the front panel at the top. Turn it over and add a dimensional towards the bottom of the slot. Add the die cut to the top of the dimensional watching the left edge of the card. Apply strong adhesive around the edge of the backside of the front panel, allowing the slider to move up and down. If adding something thick to the slider, use thin dimensional tape. Adhere to the card base. Add a sentiment to the front, message inside, embellish!

Adding items to your shopping cart is now easier than ever. In addition to browsing and adding items to your shopping cart, any online store user can add a product to their shopping cart by entering an item code into a field and designating a desired quantity for the item. This function is found in the shopping cart, and the quickest way to get to this is to click the shopping cart icon in the upper right corner of the site navigation. This works much like the current item entry method in Order Entry Express (OEX) but works for any user of the online store.
Displaying Products Available in Multiple Languages
The way the online store has displayed and filtered products with multiple language versions has left something to be desired—until now. Moving forward, the site will show you all products in your primary language (e.g., stamps, kits)—and all products that don’t have language options (e.g., ink, embellishments, tools, etc.)—together as the default product displayed within the category view you’ve selected in the Shop Products section of the main navigation menu. For example, if you click Menu > Shop Products > Shop All, you will see all products with the language designation that matches your primary language (e.g., if you’re a French-speaking Canada user your default is French) along with all products that don’t have language options.
This change is intended to clean up the presentation of products for most users, who are interested in seeing the items that most apply to them without having to sort through products available in languages they aren’t interested in.
To see products in languages beyond your primary language, use the “Language” section under the “Filter By” left-hand navigation in desktop view or by clicking the “Filter” button near the top in mobile view. Here’s how that menu functions to filter products for your viewing.
Clicking one or more specific language in the language filter menu will show you products available in the selected language or languages. For example, if you click “English,” it will show you all products within the category you’re viewing that have an “English” designation in the product name (found in parentheses at the end of the product name). You can view multiple languages at once by clicking more than one selection in the filter menu.
We’ve also introduced a new selection in the language menu: “View All.” Clicking “View All” in the left-hand language navigation menu will show you all products with a language option, in all languages.
There is also a “Clear” button that appears at the bottom of the language filter menu once a selection is made on the menu. Clicking “Clear” will restore the view to the default language products and all non-language specific products.
Please note that using the language filter options will only show you products with a language designated in their product name. You will not see products without a language option/designation when using these filters, like ribbon, embellishments, etc.
Also note that the language filter section does not appear in the “Filter By” navigation when you are viewing specific product categories that don’t have any products with a language option/designation (e.g., Menu > Shop Products > Adhesives > Glue)
