My son likes to dress up on occasion so I made him this "Birthday Suit" card to celebrate his 20th birthday. I used a tutorial by Jackie Topa as inspiration for this card. (http://jackietopa.typepad.com/addict...s-day-car.html ) I wanted the card to be larger than Jackie's sample (6.25 X 5 inches vs 5.25 X 4 inches) and I wanted to use some Herringbone paper I had in my stash instead of the black cardstock shown in the tutorial. Since the Herringbone paper was not double sided, I just cut two pieces and glued them together so I could fold back the paper to make the lapels. THe cream cardstock I used for the shirt is slightl y ribbed so it looks fairly realistic I used some buttons I had cut off of a worn out sweater. I also cut up an old silk tie to make my little tie and pocket handkerchief. Thanks for looking!
