Burn Screen, tape up & add ink…

The tees are now available on our site, in both men & women styles. A portion of each sale will be donated to the Obama for America campaign. We’ll have these at Renegade so stop by! Thanks to the Jessica, Devon, Nancy, Katie, Duffy, and the Metronomes for the great feedback & wonderful suggestions. Vote!
[...] Allison Rose’s Obama-n-Words T-shirt is one of the most unique designs we’ve seen. She has taken excerpts from Senator Obama’s DNC acceptance speech, along with other notable quotes, and created a unique piece of artwork on an organic cotton T-shirt.

So I’m not an Obama voter, but I emailed the campaign a link to your blog and this shirt…because I think it’s freakin’ amazing. If I were Obama, I would want one. And that’s just what I told them.

I had seen this shirt before when you had it on etsy and e-mailed it to several of my friends. And then I saw it at your booth at the Renegade Craft Fair this morning and realized how much better it looks in person! So now it’s on my blog:

And I definitely plan to get one soon. Maybe I’ll wear it to the polling place on election day. Keep up the great work! Hopefully when they have the Renegade Craft Fair next year there will be better weather.
