This is a Vector Tutorial. Easy.

This Tutorial was written in PSP 9. Can be done in 7 or 8.

1. Add A new Vector Layer. Set Your Background to color to the Wood Grain 01 that comes with PSP Angle 90, Scale 100. Make your Foreground Null. Using the Preset Shapes Tool/Rectangle. Vector Checked! Draw a Rectangle 90 x 170. Watch your Status bar at the bottom. Convert to Raster.

Go to Selections/Select All/Selections/Float. Then go to Effects/3D Effects/Cutout and Apply with the following settings:
Vertical & Horizontal: 0
Opacity: 100

2. Still using the Preset Shapes Tool same settings. Change the Angle of the Wood to 0. Draw another Rectangle 90 x 50 for a drawer. Convert to Raster. Go to Selections/Select All/Selections/Float. Then go to Effects/3D Effects/Cutout and Apply with the following settings:
