A Gallon of Green

You may have noticed that several of my more recent projects follow the Design Rules that have been explained on the Moxie Fab blog.  Today's project is no exception, I have chosen to follow the rules of a Gallon of one colour (Green), a Quart of a secondary colour (Pink) and a Pint of the final colour (Yellow). For a full explanation of this principle and for details of the challenge click here.

I am also guest designing over at the Faber Castell Design Memory Craft® blog today, so do hop on over  here and say hello!  I have used their Art GRIP® Aquarelle Watercolour Pencils
 and their Stampers Big Brush Pens to create this summer tie dye look Strappy Tee.  And YES you can wash it...check out my video to find out how!

Materials Used:- Penny Black 'Petal Party' 30-113, Faber Castell Design Memory Craft® PITT® Artist Pen(s) Essentials set 770075, Yellow Set 770071 and Chromium Green Opaque 174; Mixed Media Aquarelles and Inks sets Red 770200, Green 770202 and Yellow 770201; Stampers Big Brush Pen Pink Madder Lake 129; Luminarte Fabric Simple Solution - Soft Acrylic Medium and a Strappy Tee.

If you want to try this but not get the tie dye bleed effect, check the end of my video where I can show you another small sample that has crisp painted lines.

Washing instructions:- First wash in cold water then for future washes wash at 30 deg.  My first sample has now been washed about 20 times and still hasn't faded!
