Let me start out by saying, I do not have Bieber Fever, but I do have an 11 year old daughter - enough said...
My daughter, Olivia shares my love of creating anything and everything and we have a lot of fun doing projects together. She's been asking me to help her make a Justin Bieber shirt. Sure there are a gazillion JB t-shirts on the market, but she wants to make her own, one of a kind instead. I love the way she thinks!
This week we were on a quest to find a plain black t-shirt. Believe it or not, this was not that easy to find. I checked Target, Walmart, Shopko and came up with nothing. We had some time to kill on Tuesday and decided to run into Michael's. Why I hadn't thought to go straight to a craft store is beyond me! Needless to say, they had plain black t-shirts along with every other color you can imagine! And they were on sale - 2/$5. We snatched up the black and then grabbed JB's signature purple.
I had purchased some heat transfer vinyl a couple of months ago and just haven't had the time or a project to try it on.
I buy most of vinyl from H & H Sign Supply and have been so happy with them!
I used my Cricut and Sure Cuts a Lot (SCAL) to create the image. At the last second I had the sense to realize that I need to reverse the image for it to work properly. Thankfully SCAL makes it easy with a simple click of a button. After the image was cut I got to work weeding out the unwanted vinyl. Last step was to iron it on to the purple shirt.
