Merry Christmas, Recycling Queen
My mom loves, I mean LOVES, recycling. She is one of those people who picks empty cans and bottles out of the trash to recycle even when she's over at a friend's house, or in public. Anyhow, for Christmas, I thought she needed a shirt to wear when taking things to the recycling center, to let everyone know of her regal recycling status.

Fleur de Lis
It's a lovely symbol, the fleur de lis, and since Katrina came to town, it's symbolized supporting the rebuilding of a wonderful part of the country. I stencilled this silvery-blue fleur de lis onto a dark blue long-sleeved tee for myself and wear it ALL the time.
I've since stencilled the fleur de lis shirts for friends Betsy and Janette, who are both Gulf Coast folks.

Thing 1 and Thing 2
I know lots of mothers of twins, being as I am a twinmama myself. Anyhow, for Halloween my twinmama friend Susan wanted to dress up her boy/girl twins as Thing 1 and Thing 2 from Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat. The hardest part was finding a Seuss-esque font, the rest was easy-peasy. Happy Halloween!

Gemini Grandma
My mom calls herself the Gemini Grandma*, so I stencilled a gemini symbol on the sleeve of a black long-sleeved shirt and used a cool font and stencilled gemini grandma on the front of the shirt, using silver paint.
BTW, doesn't the font look very much like that used by the illustrator for the Harry Potter books? I think so.
* she's a Gemini (twins) and she has twin grandsons.

Who Let The Dogs Out?!
My husband went to Mississippi State and is a rabid Bulldogs fan. They ring cowbells at football games (or used to, until the NCAA or SEC or someone banned cowbells from the games). The Dawgs aren't doing as great recently as they have other years, but still we keep hope alive here.
So I stencilled "I Need More Cowbell"* onto the front, and a silhouette of Bully (the mascot) onto the back of the shirt. Shirt is maroon and text is a silvery-gray, as State's colors are maroon and gray. Or maybe white, I can't exactly remember.
I've also stencilled this shirt for Betsy's husband, who also went to State, and for baby Harrison, whose Daddy went to State.
* yes, from the immortal skit on Saturday Night Live featuring Will Ferrell ringing a cowbell and Christopher Walken needing more of it.

Little Supporters for the Cause
Pink ribbon teeshirts for my boys for them to wear while I am running my first Race for the Cure in my own pink survivor shirt.
I spent hours looking for a pink ribbon (or any ribbon) stencil, but ended up freehanding these (they're slightly different, because I just drew two ribbons and immediately cut them out without tracing). Added the darker pink as shadowing, and got a little carried away but I think it mostly works.
