Yudo... Love

Here is my shirt that I made today... I am excited... and I learned a couple of things... the little smear of paint on the last couple of letters is from holding your squeegee too close to the screen...and pressing too hard.. I did this trying to fix something else that I did... I am not upset this is wearable...and I am learning and having so much fun... now....

I have to tell you about my mistake on my shirt!!!... you have to tape off around the stencil of the shirt... my shirt needed an extra coat... i rinsed the screen...let it dry let my first coat of paint get dry to the touch... then in my excitement I put my screen back on the rack... pulled my second coat of paint WITHOUT the tape... I had a streak of paint down the side.... first I thought well I won't cure this with the iron... i said to myself... yea like that will wash out like you want it too...ha ha!!!..then I got to looking at the streak the inside of it was straight the outside was more artsy... so I put that sucker back on the screen... pulled me an artsy streak down both sides... looks like it is on purpose...lol...

I did use my Cricut and Gypsy for this design...the Circles with the pups are from Paper Pups... the letters are from Learning Curve ...and the Stripes they are my own design... lol... Hugs, Jeannie

My Yudo Came Today... OH BOY!

This is my first project on my Yudo...and I am beyond excited...this is on a really, really old t-shirt of my husbands.... I bought an extra screen over the weekend...and cut this out of contact paper ... I did reverse the image.... I cut it on the second from the lowest pressure on my Cricut to cut... removed all the pieces where I wanted paint... this pressured left all of the back and just the contact paper cut and pealed off...this made things so much easier... I then added dry-wall mesh tape to the front to hold all the pieced in place...I pealed off the backing... put on my screen... removed the drywall tape... I did have to put a few extra pieced back in place... I squeegeed everything into place..and waited on my Yudo to come it... now I have an emulsion sheet drying... I am going to make my daughter some pretty napkins next... I am too excited!! Thank you so much for looking!!

Hugs
