This is a birthday card I made last month for my FIL. On the inside I glued in a pocket to hold the fishing license and a gift card we got him. I cased the other fishing vest cards posted here on this site, but I changed it to make it my own. I added more pockets, since real vests have lots of pockets. I added tabs to each pocket that were folded to the inside to make them realistic. I then attached them with a pop dot in the middle ( for another real effect) and glue around the edges to hold them in place. The "flies" are just bits of yarn. I found the stickers in my stash so this card cost me almost nothing to make.
This would make a great Father's day card and can be adapted for hunting with orange and/or camo.

this is the most cleaver and detailed card I've seen for men. I wish my dad was a fishermen. I've made it a favorite for sure. Thank you for posting it.
