Title: mixed media print

 I am sure most of you have tried this but possibly for those who have not.
Two color direct screen print for the text and a Stahls digital graphic added after the spot color print was complete.
The distortion you see is just in the hang of the shirt over the rack.

Cool.

Did you use a teflon sheet or kraft paper for the transfer portion?

we used a piece of 1/8 inch pressboard to raise the transfer portion and drop out the ink portion. 305 deg transfer application will melt the ink.
the transfer has a clear cover sheet that gets peeled away hot  and we have a sheet of parchment paper fixed to the heat press platen.

I'm putting that one into the memory bank.

What did you charge for something like that?
How many pieces was it?

Great work!
