Your challenge

Create a t-shirt design inspired by Mickey Mouse and his friends.

M-I-C-K-E-Y-M-O-U-S-E! He's the most famous mouse in Hollywood (or anywhere else on Earth, for that matter). To celebrate this one-of-a-kind character, we're challenging you to create an original t-shirt design inspired by Mickey Mouse and his best friends.

Capture Mickey's optimistic, can-do attitude and add a dash of his famous mischievousness to your design. Use Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, and Pluto in any combo you wish. Just remember: Mickey and his pals have graced a lot of t-shirts, so put on your thinking ears and get creative!

Keep in mind:

  • Use your original artwork.

  • No adult references (sex, drugs, alcohol, violence, profanity, gambling, etc.) allowed.

  • You may not use any logos in your design.

  • Please stay true to the friendly, light-hearted nature of the characters.

  • You may use Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, and Pluto alone or in any combo you like, but no other characters are allowed. You may not include representations of Walt Disney in your design.
  • Legal stuff
