Title: i stenciled a t-shirt with v's picture
Post by: cassiemoy on July 31, 2008, 02:00:44 pm: so for my first venture into customizing t-shirts, i stenciled a picture of vanessa on to a plain white t-shirt from h&m.

i used this picture from the giant mag shoot:

and modified it and made it into a stencil. plus some fabric paint and some very slowgoing application of the paint and - ta dah! hanging from my dresser is my first self-stenciled vanessa carlton tshirt:

Post by: iluvvanessa on July 31, 2008, 02:58:13 pm: I like it, it looks somewhat vintage. Maybe you should do one bigger on a shirt with some lace or something to make it look kinda victorian but modern if that makes sense?

I love H&M shirts, they're so cheap, but its hard for me to get them cause the only store in my area of their's that sells men's is in san francisco.

Post by: LauraH on December 28, 2010, 09:33:40 am: Ooohhhh i like these...haha. Um is it possible to make clip art out of a picture so that like if I wanted to put V on the shirt without the background image or something?
