I found the instructions HERE, on Ink Something 2 with Kristine. But you know me, I changed things a bit from her instructions...she made origami drawers, and I didn't want to waste that much paper, so I came up with slightly different measurements to accomodate that. I also changed the configuration of the drawers. My tutorial is towards the end of the post!
If you can believe it, I hadn't used my Cherry-O papers yet, lol. I guess I was waiting for just the right project. And this was it!

As I was embellishing the Easel Card, I discovered that the some of the Spring Blossom Just Blooms make great 'cherries'.
Recipe: CTMH PP-Cherry-O, CTMH CS-Chocolate, Tulip & Colonial White, CTMH Ink-Black, Garden Green, Chocolate & Tulip, CTMH SS-Moments In Time & Live Inspired, Nestabilities-Labels 1, Labels 4 and Fancy Tags, Cuttlebug Vintage Die Cut, Martha Stewart Double Loops Border & Corner Punch, Red Organdy Ribbon, CTMH Just Blooms Flowers, CTMH Chocolate Bigger Brads, Foam Squares, Rhinestones.

4-Drawer Easel Card Tutorial

The first few steps show how I make the drawers.
.
The next step is how to make the 'wrappers', the piece that will hold the drawer.

Loved this tutorial - really easy to follow. Please take a look at my blog as I have made a 4 drawer easel card following your instructions - well sort of, I had to put my own mark on it but isn't that what crafting is all about? Sarah xxx
ReplyDeleteThis is EXACTLY what I've been looking for. I screwed up on the measurements, so my demo is a little...not good, but overall, a tweak here and a tweak there, it's gonna be fab! Thanks!
