I’ve got a LOT to share with you today. Not only do I have two fun cards, but it’s the first of the month. So you’ll want to not only watch my how-to video for both of these cards, but also read through my entire post to see the latest All Star Tutorial offering AND learn about the Last Chance products – items leaving from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog (and some are on sale!).
The two cards are Gift Bag Pop-Up cards. For one of the cards I use the Gingerbread & Peppermint Suite of products (I’m sharing the details for this one in today’s blog post). For the other I use the Ever Eden limited-time products and the Eden’s Garden Stamp Set (I’m sharing the details for that one in my December 4th blog post).


I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating both of them. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for what the first card I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live). On Saturday I’ll share the photos and details for the Eden’s Garden card.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.

Good evening, Rachel, I just ordered from clearance items from you, It asked me to choose a demonstrator to receive notifications, etc., from you. I am a demonstrator, too, so you do not need to send me any notifications. Thank you.
Thanks Cindy! So sweet of you to pass along an order to me especially since you can order from yourself.
