Using Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing and heat press process, create your own Senior Shirt!
DTF allows users to create affordable, high color shirt prints that have great durability, similar to traditional screen printing
First, brainstorm/sketch IDEAS for design style that you want to go with.

If you bring images in to your design, do NOT stretch bigger (if they are too small). Find a larger image.
Do not have 100% ink coverage; use plenty of shirt color in your design!
As many colors (including white) as you want!
Nothing smaller/skinnier than a 2pt. stroke
