What do YUDU?

Finally finally finally, I got to play!
Geoff caved in and got my a Yudu for Christmas even though he had no clue what it was or what I would do with it, and I was a very happy girl. The short answer is that a Yudu is an at home screenprinting machine. Basically, take an image and print it with paint on any flay surface (i.e. t-shirts, clipboards, canvases, etc)Well the Yudu is big and since we knew we'd be moving it has been in the box in Atlanta since, and I was not such a happy girl.

Well with Geoff gone this whole week I decided it was time to play! Yudu here I come!

I chose to use the logo I designed back in college for ELONTHON, a 24 hour dance marathon to raise money for Duke Children's Hospital. The event is this weekend, the Tuttles are speaking and I'm hoping we can go. So heres what happened: I aged the image a bit, made the transparency, burned the screen and...
STARTED PRINTING! :o) really really really happy girl! The shirt in the pic is just one of my maternity shirts from old navy and the picture looks a little elongated because I had just stretched it off of the board, but yea, a perfect copy and the exact burn-out/ aged look I was going for. oh the wheels are turning, who needs t-shirts?!?
