Update

Hello dear crafters! 

Im sure by now you must have been wondering why we haven’t had any new challenges!! 

With a lot of things happening around me, unfortunately its getting a bit difficult to co-ordinate the BGC blog! Even though I have a very supportive design team there are a lot of things that go with managing a blog which I am unable to do alone at the moment. 

So I have decided that BGC needs a good break!

And its not just a 1-month holiday that we take at the end of every year ….

This time we will be off air for a full year or until I can get back to managing everything once again.

Its been a good 4 year run! With always a good team and lovely players and entries .

I have always cherished all your support and would love to thank everyone specially all our generous sponsors who supported BGC over the 4 year span. 

When I decided to start a challenge blog in 2011 it was just a small idea …. With no experience in ever co-ordinating a challenge blog or managing a design team I don’t know how we have come so far !! 

Thank you Design team, sponsors, players and readers for all your love and support!

Its not good bye …. We will be back

Bigger and better …. Just need a bit of a break!!

PS: the winners for the past 3 challenges will be announced in the coming weeks. We will be sharing the same on our Facebook page. 

Here are some memories from the past!! 

 

 

See you soon !!!

Drawer Easel Card+Tutorial with zubmomi!

 Hello Friends!!!

                   zubmomi here, sharing my first tutorial post. Today I want to show you how to make a 5½   X 5 ½  Drawer Easel card. This is really easy to make and the end product looks really amazing. Hope you guys like it :)

You will need:

-Heavy Cardstock

Two 8 ½  x 7 inch ( A)

One 8 ½ X 8 ¼ inch (B)

One 5 ½ X 11 inch (C)

One 5 ½   X 5 ½ inch (D)

-Scoring Board.

-Scissors

.-Adhesive.

First we are going to make the sleeve of the drawer :)

Take cardstock A and, with the 7 inch short side on the left, score at 1 ½ inch. Repeat along the three sides, leaving the last 8 and half inches side as it is. Repeat the same with the second cardstock A.

Cut the two tabs, fold and burnish the creases. Again repeat the same with second cardstock A as well.

Next glue the tabs with a strong adhesive.

The two boxes are ready :)

Now attach the boxes together by applying glue around the outside of one box and gluing it inside the other. 

This completes the sleeve :)

Now to make the drawer:

Take cardstock B and score at  1 and a half inch on all four sides.

Cut the tabs as shown in the picture, burnish the creases and fold up to form the box. Secure with strong adhesive.

Slide your box into the sleeve. The drawer box card is almost ready :)

Now to make our easel card:

Take cardstock C, score the long side at 5 ½ and 8 ¼ inches and make mountain folds on both scored lines.

Attach Cardstock D as shown and you are done:)

Decorate as you like :D

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial and will give it a try! 

Happy Crafting :) :)
