See It Again Saturday: Stamped Little Birdie Shirt

If you missed the field trip yesterday here is what we did:
 
Stamped Little Birdie Shirt

Step One:
Pour a very thin layer of fabric paint onto a plastic/paper plate large enough for your stamp.

Step Two:
Lightly press your stamp into the fabric paint. Be careful not to get too much paint on your stamp. You only want paint on the raised area, it should look something like this.

Step Three:
Stamp your shirt & allow to dry!

Step Four:
While the shirt(s) are drying. I cut out some little birdies to applique to my shirt. Follow the directions on your Wonder Under or other bonding paper and adhere birdies to your shirt.
Like the birdies I used? You can print or download the template from my sidebar! I made the stencil from a Photoshop brush I got at {Pixels and Ice Cream}! If you haven't already, be sure to check out their awesome site!

Step Five:
Apply a very thin bead of Fray Check to the edges of your appliques to prevent fraying.

Step Six:
Sew or hand stitch around the edge of the birds. I had stitched with embroidery floss at half thickness. Then touch up the beak and tail with a little more Fray Check if needed.

You're Done!

Here are some close-ups!
I'm giving these two as a "big sister, little sister" baby shower gift!

  10. Yes, you do need to heat set the paint with an iron when dry. Follow the directions on your paint, mine said let dry 24 hours and then heat set. I always place a thin cloth over my shirt and then iron. Thank you for asking!
