Hippy Socks!
Hi buddies! Just wanted to show you the super easy project I made today with Melanie Muenchinger's Just So Hippy flower. All this required was a pair of white socks, Palette ink in dark pink (this brand works well on fabrics and won't bleed) and fabric paint in neon pink by Duncan Crafts, which I got at JoAnn's and they have many colors. You need to wash the fabric first if you use the fabric paint, then let the project dry for 24 hours.
TIPS:
* Make sure to wipe any excess ink from around the image prior to stamping or you'll end up with ink on your fabric.
* Press down firmly directly on top of the image each time you stamp onto the fabric. This will give a crisp, clear result.
If you have the Just So Hippy set, you should be visiting Melanie's blog everyday for amazing inspiration--it seriously rocks!!! Thanks for visiting today! ~Hugs and Happy Stampin'~

Linsey, these socks totally rock!!! I never think to do stuff like this, and it is so fabulous!!Great job!! Thanks for the warm wishes too, all is safe and sound here!!
Adorable little socks! Thanks for the tip on pre-washing the item prior to decorating it. I tried to do something similar for my nephew and after the many hours I spent on his tiny t-shirt I gave it to him and after one wash it was ruined. I'll try it again and pre-wash it this time around! Thanks for the inspiration and tip!
These are adorable! Very creative!
Love the socks!! I never thought of stamping on socks or any other type of material. Thanks for the inspiration!
SOOO PRETTY!! :) I have 2 little girls who'd be fun to make these for. Very cute--Thanks for sharing!
Linsey, this is just adorable. I have got to try this. I have 4 granddaughters that would just love these.
SO cute! I love these. In case you've never checked out my blog...I have lots of HIPPY inspiration too (Melanie and I are local friends) ok that was me showing off.
These are simply adoreable! Great job. I want to try this on my socks :)

These are just adorable Linsey. I miss having a little girl to dress up. Apparently if it isn't black and ripped, it isn't cool in 9th grade! Anyway, run on over to my Blog, there is a surprise for YOU there!!!!
These are precious!!! I may have to try that for my little monkey! She's so bored of her plain white socks and I don't blame her! LOL!
