family reunion t-shirts

Ruby's arrival conflicted with the family reunion this year, so we didn't get to attend (which was a real bummer).  But I did get to help with some family reunion t-shirts.  Way back in the day, a family member ran a flour mill and the brand was Green's Perfection.  There are precious few flour sacks still around, and they have become kind of a hot commodity in the family.  I might get in trouble for posting this, but Jared and I have one (I guess that is one of the perks of naming your first born son after said family member).  :)

I used a photo of the flour sack to make the family t-shirts.  With a bit of editing in Picnik, I was able to get a nice, bright text on a solid white background.  Then I set up a quick shop at CafePress (it's free!), and the shirts were ready to purchase for whoever wanted one.  So easy!

One thing I love about CafePress is there is something for everyone.  You can upload your designs onto all kinds of products, so if grandma isn't a big t-shirt wearer, she can get a tote bag or an apron or something.  The onesies and kids tees are my personal favorite. Oscar and Ruby are perfection, after all (to me).

Need more family t-shirt ideas?  Jordan at Oh Happy Day posted about Angela Hardison's collection of family reunion t-shirts, and I think they are all brilliant.  Wouldn't it be nice to have a graphic designer in the family?
