Brought out the fabric paints again! I've eyed this shirt from Forever 21 for some time but only wished that it had sleeves. So, with my new love of stenciling, I decided to fashion up my own. And then of course, the little gal's plain grey t-shirt begged for one too.
Supplies //
Cardstock [fold in half and free hand desired shape, unfold for a symmetrical result]
Scissors
Masking Tape [i placed tape around the edging and rolled a few pieces to place underneath the paper]
Fabric Paint
Paint Brush
T-shirts [mine from walmart for $4.88, the little gal's from target clearance for $1.29]
Cardboard or something similar to place inside the shirt [so that the paint doesn't soak through]
Tips //
Paint around your stencil edge and when painting inside that line to fill in the middle, do not re-paint the edging, it won't be even! Using a large foam brush and using a dabbing technique seemed to work best. Hold the stencil down tightly and go at it.
