It worked!
I have wanted to make a “drawer” card for a while now, but for some reason it took me forever to find instructions, and then when I did I had to change the dimensions to fit the notecards I’ve been making for a present. I wasted a lot of paper because of little mathematical errors here and there, but FINALLY, it all came together and I couldn’t be happier. I do think this is my newest all-time favorite card I’ve ever made. Ever! 🙂

What a fabulous drawer card! Yes, it’s true they are a bit tedious to make given all the measurements which have to be respected but the result is outstanding! Love the way it turned out and those butterflies are simply gorgeous!
Thank you so much for joining in our first challenge at Emerald Faerie Garden and hope to see you again soon!
