Instructions:

1. Wash the T-shirt in baby shampoo and rinse it thoroughly in cold water. Allow the T-shirt to dry thoroughly and iron it lightly.
   
    
2. Pour the gin into the glass bowl. Wet small sections of fabric with the gin and gently squeeze out any excess gin. Color the fabric with textile pens and rub the fabric gently to spread the ink. Use different colors and allow to colors to bleed into one another. Tip: The alcohol will make it seem as if the textile pens have dried up, but as soon as the alcohol has evaporated, the pens will be fine again.
   
    
3. Continue until the whole T-shirt has been colored and allow it to dry thoroughly.
   
   
   
   
    
4. Trace the provided design onto the T-shirt, or draw your own stick woman onto the T-shirt.
   
    
5. Put the T-shirt flat on the working surface. Slide the piece of cardstock inside the T-shirt, between the back and front sides of the shirt to prevent the ink from staining the back side.
   
    
6. Trace the outline of the stick woman with the black textile pen. Color the stick woman and the balloons with the pens.
   
   
   
   
    
7. Add some grass and flowers below the stick woman.
   
    
8. Use the silver marker pen to add some detail to the design.
   
   
   
   
    
9. Use the ivy leaf border pattern stamp to add a border to the small pocket on the front of the T-shirt. Color the stamp with the green textile pen, place the stamp onto the T-shirt and press down on the stamp to transfer the image. Carefully lift the stamp and allow the stamped border to dry thoroughly.
   
    
10. Use the red and yellow textile pens and the flower stamp to add a flower to the T-shirt’s pocket.
    
    
    
    
     
11. Use the black textile marker and silver pen to add some detail to the pocket’s design.
    
     
12. Wait 72 hours before washing and ironing the T-shirt.
