Is that Lipstick on your Collar?

I needed to make a VD card for my husband and I hadn't gotten to his yet but, I got some inspiration from a couple of blogs so, here is it.....lipstick on the shirt collar!

I wanted to use the lip sheet from the DCWV Rock Star stack and I wanted to use the lip cut from the Tie the Knot but, wasn't sure about the rest.   Then I got the idea and looked through my cartridges but, couldn't find a shirt and tie so, I figured it couldn't be that hard to make by hand and have the collar a little 3 dimensional.  So, the shirt & tie is entirely formed/cut by hand.  The paper for the shirt is black cardstock and a pinstriped sheet from the DCWV Linen stack.

The lips were cut at 1/2" using only the blackout and top layer of the lips from the Tie the Knot cartridge.   The light colored mat is also from the Linen stack and the pink lip sheet is from the DCWV Rock Star stack.   The sentiment is from the Scrappy Moms 'Charmed Life' set. 



On the inside, I used a sheet of white cardstock and an EK Success punch on the right side with a strip of the lip paper down the left side.   Hope he likes it.  He's truly is one of a kind!
