For this week's rolled collar technique challenge. I down-sized the technique to accommodate a sweater vest, and the bow covers the collar... Eh! I'll do a regular tie next time.
Can you see how I wrapped the base cs around to make the blazer front?

What a creative take on the collar! My son is a teacher who dresses to the 9's, and his students love it........this looks like him!! Now if it was an argyle sweater, I'd think you were peeking in his closet! Love your card!

This was well worth your time, it is fabulous! I love the extra step of the embossed sweater. Fine looking Gentlemens card right Down to his snazzy bow tie.

Very smart and dapper, Brenda. I like the bow tie and it's still perfectly obvious that it's a collar. LOVE the embossed vest; that ef has been on my wish list for a while, I think you've just given it higher priority. Brilliant masculine card, which could be switched up into a great wedding card, I think.
