I couldn't find a pattern for a hawaiian shirt so I decided to create my own. My dad likes to wear hawaiian shirts but only the muted color kind..like Tommy Bahama. While I couldn't afford to get my dad a Tommy Bahama shirt I thought this was the next best thing.
I wanted the shirt to unbutton which I figured out how to do but the cardstock is weak where I punched the holes. I reenforced it but next time I think I will use velcro and have it open that way. I made the shirt all away around the cardstock.

Sam~Like I said the other night...I think the stamp set and colors you picked are perfect for your Dad. You did a really great job on the pattern and design with the buttons that really unbutton. This turned out FAB, and I'm sure your Dad will love it! TFS
