I purchased this template for 5 bucks from AR Creations. It was super easy...it only took me TWO tries to get it right! Normally, I'm looking at 3-4.
It takes a bit to cut everything out. Getting everything cut and pieced together took about an hour...maybe a little more. The decorating took three times as long! I attached both the drawer pull and label plate in the back with glossy accents, brads and E6000. It'll pretty much survive the zombie apocalypse, I figure.
I glued the K&Co labels to the front, after stamping some cute sentiments from Verve's Sunny Days. I propped it up on 4 buttons and it's heavy and solid enough to handle some wear and tear. I like how it holds your EF's or blank notecards and envelopes in reach...not to mention it's purdy!!!!
I figure I can make about 17 more by the time the prizes for DTGD are announced, so I'll get started on that now.
heh heh
Thanks again to the Dirty Girl's for this year's challenge and for the extra work they're doing tonight to hand out prizes on top of everything else they've done!! BIG MMMWWAAAHHHS! to you all!!

You, my friend, are amazing! This is awesome! I have bazillion questions on what you used to make it sturdy and the decorating is phenomenal! I am familiar with AR and they DO have some wonderful patterns! Altered art is your forte so stay with it! I LOVE it! Now I'm headed to see the rest of the views!
