So I made Nathan's Valentines Day shirt way early, only to procrastinate his birthday shirt. Bear in mind, his birthday is 2 days BEFORE valentines day. One event or the other is bound to get neglected...this year, thanks to the snow of epic proportions, I haven't crafted enough for either...eep! Anyway, the one bright side to all the snow...I got 2 snow days from work and got crafting done. His birthday party theme is trains, and I thought up the design for the shirt weeks ago...of course just now got around to doing it. The only things I am not happy about are - the smudge behind the front wheel and that the train isn't quite centered. Both of these mistakes are due to me trying to rush and get it done. I will not stress about this (as obsessive as I may be), since he will only wear it twice.
I used the following:
* tulip "soft" fabric paint
* reynolds freezer paper
* cut the stencils on my Cricut Create with the following cartridges and settings:
- don juan for font, letters cut at 1 1/4 "
- My Community train engine cut at 3"
