I made this card today for my Dad for Fathers Day. I bought the little die cut glasses a while ago and wanted an idea to use them so I made this little origami shirt which is very cute. I used a blue card and blue check paper for the background. I printed Happy Fathers Day on my computer. To make the shirt is quite easy, I took a 5 x 7.5 inch piece of paper and folded it into a shirt. You can find video's on YouTube on how to do this. I cut a little pocket and put some faux stitching on it with a white gel pen and some little brass embellishments for the buttons. I slotted the glasses in the pocket as Dad puts his glasses in his pocket so I thought it was ideal, hope you like it!
That is so cute and the folded shirt is great and the glasses he does keep in his pocket, that is very creative. Lesley
