 Grin I made this tank top to wear to a rally. I just cut a stencil using some letters I printed out from the computer, and a picture of lips I cut out, then I spray painted it. I made it really quickly right before we left for the rally, it took less than 15 mins. 

Just wanted to add.
I don't know how it will fair in the wash yet..Because the rally was yesterday.. Does anyone know how spray paint holds up to washing?  Anyway it served its purpose very well! Smiley

Thanks!

I found a picture of a lipstick kiss imprint, http://paperspine.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/lipstick.png.
Then I printed it out, and cut out all the red parts, leaving some "lines" to create a more realistic lip. That created a little stencil, and from there I just laid it on and sprayed the shirt.

That is awesome! I love the colors, and the way you did it in such a short time but it looks like you could have bought it that way. Cheesy I want one!
