Default what do I need to use to get my designs to look like this?

I'm new to this I have a heat press I use to put on hot fixes but I would like to get some different transfers. I have read several things but am still comfused at what I should be using. I like the way the fashion tees look on the site the teira fits .com but can anyone tell me what I need to use to do my own designs to look like this

Are you talking about the site: mytiarafits.com ?

Those designs look like they are screen printed directly onto the t-shirts, not heat pressed.

You could get something similar by getting custom plastisol heat transfers made of your designs.

yes thank you so much. Do you think the plastisol transfers will look that good? My next ? is where do you start looking for art work for example. I want some designs like the web site you looked at I do a lot of the fashion tee's for the juniors... I have always used fabric patches I cut out by hand. Where do I get art like that

You would need to hire an artist to create the artwork for you.

If your good at drawing you can definetly use photoshop. Draw it on paper, scan it, add some color and your set.
