T-shirts, Totes, Posters Ooh My

Due to popular demand I have finally decided to post a step by step guide on screen printing... Ta Da!!
That is a lie.
Not only did people not know I did this course (which is another lie because I told everyone) I have also unashamedly used and abused New Kids On The Block (NKOTB for all you 90s boppers) purely to tie all this together for a post, which doesn't even provide a stepbystep-how-to as it promised only sentences ago.
But anyway I did this! All of this. Enjoy.

Gotta pay some respect though, so check out these -Steps!- (Don't)



-Step 1! (one one) We can have lots of fun-

Don't really feel like describing this.


-Step 2! (two two) there is actually quite so much we have to do-*

 Finished!!!
* And this is way past step two



-Step 3! (three three) Its just these for me-

Finished again!! but like, more stuff!



-Step 4! (four four) I can give you more-* **

-Step 5! Don't you know that the time has arrived?!-*

*According to Jon
I'm not really sure what for

TheStevens


-To have and to hold-

These are my friends at Sperella
They are a power couple who can do loads of stuffs. They create gardens, they cook and bake, they make tables, do upholstery...... If they weren't my friends i would be weird. Well... for drawing them in the first place.

You mess with them, you mess with me. And you dont wanna mess with me because my Dad knows Han Solo!*

The first words Mrs.Stevens ever said to me were 'You're in love with a book worm?!?!'  
To answer her now : 'Yes Mrs! What of it?!'



*I can totally prove this (see below)

-The Bachelorette Essentials- 

''With great power comes great responsibility''  (Benjamin "Uncle Ben" Parker)
Not Rice Uncle Ben

Organising the bachelorette party is almost as big a deal as making your sisters wedding cake with no wedding cake making experience. 'I'll be fine' I thought.
and that was that ,I was fine...
Well what were you expecting? A play by play of my panic, waves of SeaInsēcūritās crashing upon me as I try to climb up the side of BenMaidOfGottaGetThisPerfectHonour (Mt Huashan eat your heart out) clawing on to cold and sharp edges I could barely reach, trying my absolute best to hold on, you know, for dear life. Only to misjudge myself out of balance and slip, fall to my impending.... So silly.
Yes I was nervous, I'd never organised a party/event before and this was kind of a big deal.
I wanted the best for my sister. As you do. I didn't want her to beat me up.
No tacky FluffyTiaraBrideToBeSashWillyStrawsPinkWhistlesL-PlatesShananigans
None of that!
And in one quick mind swoop I managed to take all the tack from a hen do. I also took all the quirks. The add ons, bolt ons to the fun. I was again being silly. So i decided to keep the extras but starting from scratch. Because it's special innit. 
So i designed boy/girl sashes (Boy mates were invited too-not the Bachelor though!) making origami winged heart brooches(red girl, boy blue), personalised party poppers, bride sash, pearl tiara veil, message book. With the help of my brother i managed to get everything printed out nicely and on time.
Activities: I organised the night with help from my sisters wonderful friends. That is all i will say.
Not all the add-ons are pictured on this post. not allowed. What happens on tour, stays on tour*

Over all I think I did alright; everybody had a great time, my sister was verrry happy, I wasn't put in some sort of half nelson....
Shame I didn't think of the physics when trying to save Gwen Stacy...
Apart from that- It was Amazing!


*by that i meant I lost the photos

Monochrome

 

-I think there's an eyelash in my eye... No no, pretty sure its a wasp-

I created these a while ago, mix of photography drawing and Photoshop. No text with them but they could be used for gig posters or flyers or something along those lines.
