I hate to tell you all this but I am going to be gone ALL day tomorrow!! I know I have a lot of nerve!! I will probably get a few more done tonight - but if you don't hear from me tomorrow - I will be back late tomorrow night!

 

[scoutsmom99]

Oh goodness I have spent the last 3 hours on this thread (Reading from page 10 on). Everyone is so creative and I bookmarked tons of great sites. I'm going to have to give making a T-Shirt a whirl!

 

[billwendy]

hi,

do the tshirts that you buy from ac moore or michaels work for tie die? if not, where do you get your shirts??? oh, DH wants an army camo looking tie die,,,,has anyone tried this?

thanks, wendy

 

[KMH1]

That's FANTASTIC!!!! i may have to use that one if you don't mind...

Look out everyone there's another talented Tee designer in our midst... just wish some of this would rub off on me

Of course you can use it, that was the purpose of posting it. If you would like me to e-mail you a larger and therefore better quality version for printing, PM me your e-mail address. And thanks for the compliment. To be compared with some of the great designers on this thread is quite encouraging. There's just no way that I could be as prolific as them.

Finally got our personal design done for our October trip. What do you think?

Don't know if I'm completely happy with the text at top. But there is still sometime before our flight leaves. Too much time, actually. If anyone is interested in this design, just PM me and I can customize with your own saying or just send you a blank. I enjoy doing it, so feel free to ask.

And now ...

i wonder if you talented guys can help me out.My favourite ride and character are splash mountain and brer rabbit.has anyone got an idea for a t shirt that says something like "i'm back in my laughing place" or something along those lines?
I love the idea of wearing a themed t shirt while riding the mountain!!

I'll give this one a whirl!

I finally get my designs together.
I made a big mistake.
I told everyone I need 2 ideas from each.
Now I have 6 designs.
I'm very happy with 5.
I would like some help with the Pooh gang looks to boring to me.
I would like to use the clip-art.
My DD always draws a funny face with tounge sticking out under her name.
Pooh is her favorite.

Kevin....that's STUNNING. Is that original art from you? I LOVE it. It's really, really incredible.

Thanks. Not original art. I scanned a coloring book page and then colored it with Photoshop. I used it as a background for a pin frame I did a couple of years ago. Glad you like.

Thanks again, good luck!!




Great - thanks for the info - I was only using one rubber band around the mickey head and two rubber bands along the "body" of the shirt I guess that's why I didn't get the effect you did - I like the amount of white you have as a border. Thanks for the quick reply, I'm going to have another go at it tomrrow!

[Brendita]

Sorry everyone about the last postTrying to post pictures.

 

[BluOrchid2]

Thanks. Not original art. I scanned a coloring book page and then colored it with Photoshop. I used it as a background for a pin frame I did a couple of years ago. Glad you like.

--Kevin

Ooooh, FABU idea to scan a coloring book page!!!!

 

[Mrs. Squirrel]

JNESWDWMOM when did you download photoimpact and from what site. I keep getting errors when I try. Thanks

Tracy

I downloaded the trial of PhotoImpact 10 from Ulead's website under free downloads. (Sorry, I can't post the actual link, because I don't have enough posts yet-being new & all). It took 5 1/2 hours! I had trouble the other night on this same site with error messages. Maybe too many Dis'ers trying to download at once! The site had a survey at completion, so they must be aware of issues. Hope this helps!

 

[hipporina]

Okay, you guys have inspired me, so I decided to give it a try for our trip. The first one is not my favorite. It definately needs something else.

The second one I like better. I asked everybody who their favorite character is and made sure to include it. Then on the other side of the shirt I may put that person's character and their name. I'm just not sure that people will get the play on words. What do you guys think? I'm sure my sisters will probably think they are both cheesy, but oh well.

 

[thelionqueen]

Great - thanks for the info - I was only using one rubber band around the mickey head and two rubber bands along the "body" of the shirt I guess that's why I didn't get the effect you did - I like the amount of white you have as a border. Thanks for the quick reply, I'm going to have another go at it tomrrow!

Glad I could help! Through my triaol & error, I hope you get "less ink on your hands" and great results!!! Let us know how they turn out!

 

[lovesdumbo]

WOW!!!!! They keep getting better! Love the Supercalifrag...uh..Epcot one and Buzz and really love the Pooh one. And Kevin yours is really great too.

Hipporina-love your play on words with the 17 "characters"!

and the Canada one is awesome too!

So any hints on how to get a good transfer with the iron on sheets before I try any of these great designs?

 

[thelionqueen]

Lionqueen -

I want to warn you that when I go to make my Mickety tye dyes - I will probably fill up your pm box with questions!!!

Those look awesome - I have all my stuff just not the energy to deal with the mess!! Did you use 100% cotton tees?

You have done so much for everyone, any help I can be I would be glad to give! I used 50/50 tees. I think the 100% cotton tees wouldn't give as much bright color..don't know...just assuming since it is heavier. I also like the lightweight of the 50/50 (not to mention they are on sale @ Michael's so I could afford to do it twice )

I found that by doing all the shirts it's much easier (though more time consuming). I bought the black color separately and it didn't bleed as much as any of the other colors. I also did the black LAST to try to keep it off the other colors. I wrapped about 2 inches of rubber bands (as tightly as I possibly could) around the black mickey head for the white background. I wrapped about an inch around the other colors to try to have a white border but they all bled through. I used fishing line for the outline (pretty tight stitches, about 1/4" apart) and tied ends together. I found on the 1st batch that if I knotted the end, it made a small hole.

Anything else I can help with, don't hesitate to ask! Thanks again for all you do!

Earlier in this thread, someone posted a site where you could purchase already made tye-dye shirts. The site was mdmintl.c I checked it out myself, because I was going to do exactly what you are thinking-even spoke to the shop by phone. DH nixed my idea due to a previously undiscovered tye-dye phobia! Anyhow, the pre-done shirts were reasonably priced. They had an amazing selection of designs in all sizes. Since you are planning on customizing them, this would save you time. Let us know how it goes!

 

[KMH1]

Another one with Splash Mountain. Brerrabbit 28 ... if you like, PM me with e-mail and personalization info and I will send it to you in larger version.

 

[triplefigs]

Kevin,

You are one talented and creative man! Those shirts are awesome. If you have any ideas for my triplets (Family Magic Tour, Prince Shirt, 1st trip to WDW), I'd love to see them. I posted some ideas a few pages back.

I'm amazed at the talent some people have and share with others so freely and willingly! I can barely check email!

 

[julia & nicks mom]

triplefigs - I used your wish list to come up with these - the first one I modified so there were the three pooh characters for your kids - but I could do one with 5 if you want
