Need help with a big brother design for my nephew, and cousin design for my sons

[marshallandcartersmo]

Would really like some help with this one, looked HIGH and LOW through all the designs and couldn't find one similiar.

My nephew (4) is expecting a new sister next month and I'd like to make him a shirt to make him feel special when she's born. He loves Lightning McQueen, but other than that I don't have any thoughts.........something like "I'm the big brother"......

My sons (6 & 3) will be her cousin, and I'd like to make them a shirt to wear to the hospital when they visit her, but really have no idea what. Both of my DS's likes Cars also........

thanks so much, I appreciate your help

I've been designing using Microsoft Word, so I can't share my designs on here. However, I'm thinking maybe something with Mater, Lightning, and Doc together saying something like, "Holy Porsche, it's a girl!" That way, all three boys could have matching shirts in the pictures. Maybe on the back, write "I'm the big brother" and "I'm the cousin."

And, of course, a onesie with a picture of Sally on it for the baby.

Thanks so much!! Any way to make the wording a little bigger??

How about one for my DS's? I don't know if "I'm the cousin" sounds right......thanks again

Wish you could post designs!! That's a cute idea!

Thanks to the idea of tchrrx, I worked on this for you this morning. I hope it's what you are looking for. If you want colors or anything changed, let me know.

How about these to go with it - I wasn't sure what color shirt you were planning on using - so remember that background and text colors are an easy change.

I also wasn't sure what wording you would want on the baby - so again - it can be changed if you can think of something cuter!

Ding Ding Ding!! We have a winner!! I love them all but I think this is the one we're going with. Thank you so so much! And thank you Kristine for your hard work, I actually think I'm going to turn yours into a magnet for my nephews room.

My only request is, can you make all three of the boys shirts with Lightning McQueen---even the ones that say I'm the cousin. I can imagine they would fight over who got the Lightning shirts.

Now do I just save them in a document then print them on transfer paper? Will I have to flip them? It's been awhile since I did this......

Marshallandcartersmo,

Here is the design with all Lightening McQueen.

Yes, you do exactly what you said - you only need to flip the image if your transfer paper tells you to. Most of the time dark transfer paper does not need to be flipped. Dark Paper is what you need to make the white in a design white and not the color of the shirt. I recommend Dark also because the colors seem more vibrant.

Words O.K. on the baby's shirt?

Everythings great. Thanks so much for the great job! I'll have to look you up when we go on our Disney trip next April (if you don't mind)! I had some cute ones done last year when we went by they all say "my first trip"......

thanks again so much for your time!

You are very welcome! You can certainly look me up for your April trip - I am really enjoying learning/designing. Glad I could help!
