Shirt Card for Father's Day

With Father's Day coming up, I figured these shirt cards might be just the thing.  There are instructions for them in many places on the web.  Here's one (note the Hawaiian print used for it as well -- very cool). There are a lot of nice papers that work well for shirts, and you can tuck a note into the inside of them.  I've also seen them made with paper money -- a mini-card & gift in one!  I thought the ribbon I put down the front made a nice band for the shirt and the buttons are actually brads.  I used faux stitching on the pocket -- just some pen lines around the edge.

Here's another one  made with plaid paper.  This time I made the front band out of matching plain fabric. Of course, you could always just leave it the original paper, too.

Great shirt cards! I've never made one yet. I love the ribbon down the front of the shirt.
