Everything Is Rosey

I had found a T-Shirt on the 75% rack at Target but it was just screaming for some sort of decoration. It is very thin and doesn't really lend itself to structural changes so I painted it. I was reluctant. My memory of painting shirts were with puffy paint. Not really what I wanted. I found some softer paint that went on like real paint and dries flat. I made my own stencil with a folder. I painted over the stencil but then it look too stencil-y so I blended purple into the edges. I did some more shading in between petals. I also did paint splatters by watering down the colors. I am very happy. I turned out exactly how I imagined. And it doesn't look like some puff paint T-shirt I made when I was 8 :-P
