DISney Princesses are back to party w/ the Pirates! May 2008! *WE'RE BACK!!!*

[bbangel]

Ok I think since that free shipping is only valid for a couple more days we need to make a choice ASAP!

Maybe since everyone has different opinions have just the same designs on front and back. You just pick which version you like the best?

Like everyone have the "What stays in Disney" on the front and then the princess mickey on the back. Then just add on text (if possible) with your dis name.

Just an idea!

Cheryl I think that is a great idea. I'm assuming we are doing white shirts? I haven't checked out whether Cafe Press does other colours or not.

I think that would be the best option since there are a few of us that are interested in the shirts and theres not much time to cash in on the free shipping. Also this way would also please everyone in their favorite color of design.

I'm thinking I'm going to order mine tomorrow.

So are we all good with the "What happens" on the front and the Princess on the back?

I was thinking the white shirts as well.

Sounds good. Which "What Happens one are you going to use? Does anyone know if you can add text to the shirt? If so, where are we adding our screen names?

I was looking at this. You can't add text. Unless its already on the design that you upload.

Hi everyone!

I'm finally back and it looks like I have some catching-up to do. DH & I were out of town for our Easter vacation in Boston. It was my first visit and I really loved it!

I can't believe our DIS Meet is almost here! I am getting so excited!



I just love these designs! My favorite so far!

I saw that Cafepress does have different color shirts to choose from and many designs. I personally like the white because the designs show-up better. So, we have decided on the pirate/princess design for the back and the "What happens in Disney..." for the front? I want to make sure I match!

Do we know anyone that could update the designs with text for our names or should we just go without it? I'm going to check now to see how much time they need for the order. I want to make sure I get mine in time!


How about these two designs for our shirts?

 

[DisDancerina]

Those are so cute!

 

[bbangel]

Lindsay those are the two I'm going to do on a white shirt. I'm wondering if we might have a problem with the rules of Cafe Press because of trademarking mumbojumbo. Anyone tried to order one yet?

 

[Julie Mouse]

Hi Everyone! I am so excited - just 49 days to go for me! I just tried to order a t-shirt. I'm downloading the images from here. The front image comes out as 6 inches, and the back is 5.5 inches (maybe that's reversed). I went to the designer's site and then I got teeny tiny images. I haven't ordered yet because I was expecting the images to be bigger. Has anyone else tried to order?

Hmmmm thats what I'm getting too. Seems really small. Maybe we should try another site??

 

[Julie Mouse]

I was thinking that my images were smaller because I was copying them into my photos before loading them onto the t-shirt, but I just tried to edit one of them, and enlarged it to almost the size of my computer monitor. It still comes out 6 inches once I load it. I wish I knew more about this stuff.

 

[as dreamers do]

What about Zazzle? Anyone used them before?

 

[Julie Mouse]

I just tried Zazzle. I can get a bigger image, but I do get a warning that the image is bigger than the original, and may be blurry. Also, it seemed like it was too high on the shirt, but everytime I tried to move it down, the image would resize to a much smaller picture.

 

[bbangel]

I think I'm going to try printing them and ironing them on a shirt myself.

 

[Fairy_Tale_Bride]

Well, it sounds like we're having some t-shirt issues!

Let's keep everyone updated on our progress and we can see if we can get the designs to work on a specific site. Any other sites anyone knows of?

The ironing is a grea idea too and that should work. Megan, do you know a great place to get the iron paper that you print on? I've actually never tried this myself.

I was thinking a black shirt may look really nice with these two designs too!

 

[bbangel]

I was just going to follow the advice from the design board. There is a sticky with some tips on printing and transfering the design. I'm going to do a white shirt since I think it will be easier to do the transfer on a light colour. I'm going to look at my local craft store or Michaels for the supplies.

 

[tinkerbell87512]

Megan- I think thats what I'm going to do too. That way I can print them the size of the paper and they wont be blurry or anything.

Lindsey- You can get the iron on sheets at Michaels or AC Moore. I'm sure any craft store for that matter. Also I'm sure walmart or target will carry them. I've used them before and they arent hard to do at all.

I can't believe we are so close! Next month!! I've actually already started packing I'm just getting so excited.

 

[Julie Mouse]

You are all so fun - I am excited, too, and it's nice to know other people are feeling the same way I am!! I have never tried iron-ons before. I think I'm going to try it right away in case I have problems. My mom was one of the craftiest people I've ever known, but I seem to be much more left brain than she was. Wish she were still here to do it for me! We are finally having one of the nicest days we've had in about 5 months, and it's supposed to stay that way all weekend. I hope you all have beautiful weather this weekend, too. May will be here before we know it.

 

[tinkerbell87512]

Guys guess what....My ME packed came yesterday! It's getting close now!!

 

[Julie Mouse]

Good for you Cheryl! Have you tried the t-shirt yet? I just bought all of the stuff - wasn't very expensive. There is a new Michaels by my house so I have been wanting an excuse to go there. They had the kind of transfers that you have to reverse the image, and then they had a kind that will print on white fabric, and you don't reverse the image. I bought the second kind, figuring it should be pretty straight forward. I just bought the inexpensive t-shirt from Michaels, so if it doesn't work, I didn't spend very much and I can try it over with the other kind. I was just wanting someone to give me a boost of confidence before I do this
