Lil' Princess Tee Shirt by Jamie Gillahan



Software: Funtime Files Used: Butterfly with Flourishes   Princess Hand Mirror by Judy Stark
Materials: Heat Transfer Vinyl, Light Pink Rhinestones


I recently made a Service Flag tee shirt for my Mom and my daughter saw it.  That was the end of that, now she wanted me to make a shirt for her as well! 

For her, I decided to add a little more Princess to it.  It was something that I thought that she would appreciate A LOT more.  :o)  I started by finding the perfect sentiment worked in Funtime to get the layout just right.
 
 
 
I used the Funtime font, Impress BT Regular, for the majority of the sentiment.  "HERO" I used the true type font Army and for "Lil' Princess" I used the true type font CAC Champagne.
 
With Funtime, it made it so easy to add an outline to "Lil' Princess" so that I could incorporate my daughter's favorite colors.
 
 
I ironed on everything at once but the top layer of "Lil' Princess."  Once everything cooled a bit, I added the top layer of "Lil' Princess."  I love how easy it is to use more than one color of heat set vinyl and how well you can layer colors.  
With everything in place, I needed to add a little bling to the crown.  Using light pink rhinestones, I set them on the crown and using the already warm iron, I set them.

Overall I'm very happy with how this shirt turned out but I think that if I were to make another one I would use a lighter purple vinyl for the majority of the sentiment
 
Thanks for looking!!
