Father's Day Gift {FAIL}

I've been whipping out little gifts here and there with my new Silhouette. I even received my vinyl shipment so I've been going to town with that. Today I want to share with you my FAILED Father's Day gift.

Why is it a FAIL? Even though this is a cute tee-shirt:

Seriously, how funny is this? A lot of men refer to their wives as "Trophy Wife", but how many women turn the tables? That was my idea...

Here's a close up:

Now, my husband truly is my trophy :-) He works hard, loves MY children as if they're his own, and supports me in all my crazy endeavors. So I was pretty pysched about making him this tee-shirt.

And then he tried it on...

IT'S TOO SMALL FOR HIM!

Huh? I grabbed it from his stash of tee-shirts! But he tried it on and said it was too small :-( That's why I don't have a picture of him wearing it :-( :-(

But my FAIL can be your gain! I'm sharing this file for you ladies who'd like to create a heat transfer tee for your hubbies so they know they're a prize.

Just make sure you pick a tee that's the right size LOL

  1. Lesley, I have an awesome idea! Cut it out in a rectangle shape and sew it to the front of a t-shirt that DOES fit, like a large patch. It is FAR to nice not to get used! I love this idea! Blessings!

  7. I thought women were the only ones who had too-small clothes in their closets! ;)

    Great job, even if it didn't work out like you had expected.

    I'm going to have to look into this heat transfer stuff ...
