Dad's Mustard Jacket

Here's the card I made for my Dad for Father's Day, he loved it, and recognised right away that I'd based my card on an outfit he actually has!  He even has glasses like these, he called them his Buddy Holly's and I thought they were long gone, but he dug them out when we when to visit him today, and we all had a laugh trying them on, my seven year old son looked hilarious in them!

 The card base is a 5x7 blank with the front cut back, I've decorated the inside and outside with Papermania Heritage Press papers, I've used the same pack for the shirt and tie too, they're a godsend for male cards.  I cut out  and decoupaged a circular element of the patterned paper, top left, for added interest.
The jacket topper was made with Mum's fabulous Xcut gents suit die set, I cut the jacket from Core'dinations, and used foam pads at certain points of the layering and flat glue at others for a bit of realistic dimension, I also added Glossy Accents to the lenses of the glasses for a realistic touch.
To finish my card, I added a couple of buttons and a stamped sentiment, done with a Papermania stamp.
