Today, I finally found some time to whip up a card for my hubby on his first Father's Day so I thought I would share this super easy & super cute shirt card!
Since I really have limited time for crafting between feedings & diaper changes, I just grabbed whatever paper I could find but I would suggest using a piece of paper that is about 8 1/2 by 14 inches for a better looking, better shaped shirt.
First, take your paper & flip it over so the patterned side is face down. Then fold the paper in half, unfold & take each side of the paper & fold them in to the side touch the middle fold of the paper.
Then take each top corner of the paper & fold them in so they touch the outside folds of the paper. Then, putting your finger in the center of the triangle, pinch the outside points of the triangles together. Then, while still pinching the triangles, fold the top of the paper down.
Flip the over & turn in upside down, folding the top edge of the paper down just a little bit. Then flip it back over & fold the top corners in so they touch the middle fold line. Then fold up the bottom part & tuck it into the collar of the shirt.
To make a tie, simply cut a piece of paper that fits inside the collar, snip out the bottom of the tie & add on a the knot of the tie by adding an extra piece of the paper to the top of the tie.
See, so easy & so fun!
Have a happy Father's Day weekend!
