I have made several shirts before but I do try to make them a little different each time. For my Son-in-Law, I made a shirt in a tissue-paper filled box and hand made sleeves. For my brother, I added a proper tie and a cuff-link. I have posted both of these cards before. But my new version is for best matey's 20 year old son. He doesn't often wear a long sleeved shirt and I'm sure he wouldn't like a tie so I have opened up his collar (no mean feat on a paper version where I had to tuck in more "fabric" beneath the opening and I undid his tie for a more casual look! Background paper is K&Co. I stamped the shirt fabric myself using SU Teal and a houndstooth stamp (the origin of which I can't recall). An SU sentiment layered in an SU scalloped punch, a couple of corner stamps, two Architectural Element Sizzlit die cuts in the other corners and a few buttons from my stash complete the ensemble.
Perhaps I should open a little shirt shop!
