A starting point for your next design.
Eight editable briefs for tees, hoodies, and sweatshirts. Replace the brackets with details from your own brand and audience.
Give the idea a little direction
Subject. Palette. Placement.
A useful prompt tells the design a little about the product. A mountain illustration on a cream tee might use bold olive shapes and generous empty space. A small sleeve motif needs a simpler silhouette.
Choose a brief below, replace the bracketed details, and make it your own. Save the version you used so you can compare the next result with a clear starting point.
Name the garment
Specify the blank color and print placement so you can judge the composition in context.
Change one thing at a time
Compare subject, palette, or layout variations without losing the idea you started with.
Review the output
A prompt does not guarantee a print-ready file. Check resolution, background, lettering, and placement; order a sample.
One brief, one focused revision
What changed when we asked for less?
The trail prompt produced a recognizable landscape, with extra detail we did not need for a small chest print. We used that first image as the reference for a simplification pass.
Editorial AI study · 7 September 2026 · Created with OpenAI image generation for this guide, outside Vaybel. These are digital outputs, not printed samples or a demonstration of Vaybel’s production workflow.
01 / First result
The main silhouette reads clearly. Small grasses and stones add detail that could become distracting at chest-print size. The green also contains tonal variation.
Exact generation prompt
Create an original chest graphic for a trail-running club. One simple mountain and winding trail symbol, dark forest-green ink, bold clean shapes, generous empty space around the artwork. Flat artwork only, no garment or mockup, no text. Transparent background. Square canvas.
02 / Simplification pass
Trees and stones are gone, and the trail is wider. Tonal variation remains despite asking for flat color. Review at the intended physical size and clean up the file if you need a single solid ink color.
Exact edit prompt
Simplify this exact trail-club artwork for a small chest print. Keep the mountain-and-winding-trail composition and dark forest-green color. Remove all trees, grasses, stones, and small interior marks. Use flat solid green shapes without gradients or texture, a single broad winding trail, and generous gaps between shapes. Transparent background. No text, no garment, no mockup. Square canvas.
To repeat the revision, attach your first image to an image-editing workflow. Copying the edit text into a new generation alone will not preserve the original. For a new idea, edit one of the eight briefs below. Keep the buyer and test plan beside your prompt.
These are writing templates, not tested sales winners. Use the review note beside each prompt to decide what to inspect before publishing.
