Creative Adventure With My Brother, Zee

So, my youngest brother came to me for some creative counsel, wanting to make a t-shirt to wear to a basketball game he is playing in with the Kinesiology Club at one of our local community colleges.

He purchased some dark tee shirt transfers from Walmart, a black tee from Hobby Lobby (yay! for 40% off coupon!), and according to his ink readout from his inkjet printer, the use of ink was minimal. Here is the fruit of our labor:

What is Rainbow Dash? In case you hadn't heard (and until a couple of months ago, I hadn't) The My Little Ponies of yester-year have been totally revamped!

Surprisingly, the show emphasizes a lot of values like teamwork, kindness, friendship, clean humor, etc. I do admit, some of it has made me laugh. Okay, enough admitting for one day.

One of my favorite ways to gather project inspiration is to visit my local my local Barnes & Noble with my hubby and look through crafting books and magazines. Because they are too expensive to buy (lol), I do what any other crafter on a budget would do - take pictures!These were taken from various magazines (can't remember exactly which ones), but the ones I was flipping through include Cloth, Paper, Scissors; Somerset Studio; Molly Makes; Art Journaling; and a couple more that I can't remember the titles of.
