Farm Boy Love!

What's better than spending the weekend at the farm?

Spending 3 full days at the farm, hanging with some cute farm boys, celebrating a birthday,

and seeing the other niece and nephews from across the river for a few hours.

Usually when there's a birthday party, a gift is a good thing to have.  :)

I have had an idea of what I wanted to make for Carson for awhile, 

but had yet to make it. 

Of course, it didn't get finished until about an hour before the party!  

Oops!

But, I think this is my favorite 'freezer paper stencil project' to date.

You can find my other projects here and here.

I can guarantee you that I WILL be making more Farm Boy shirts, 

but with a twist!  :)

Front:  {pardon the awful pictures...I was in a hurry to get it wrapped and get to the party!}
 

 

 The back....which totally makes the shirt 'perfect'!

 

If you look closely, you'll see that there is a little white outline around the tractor {and the letters as well}.
This was not intentional.

I started with trying to paint on white letters.  But even after a few layers, it looked pink.

Therefore, I had to pick a different color.  Blue it was.

The colors look great together...in my opinion.

After painting on the blue and pulling the freezer paper off,

I liked what I saw.  Blue letters with a white outline.

I'm not sure how it happened...
but I'm guessing it is from the paint drying and making the shirt shrink a bit.

  

And here's the birthday boy, sporting 3 of his birthday items.

1.  Styling hat.

2.  Amazing coat.

3.  Trendy Farm Boy tshirt.
