Hi friends! Today, I have a fun post from design team member Alicia Thelin to share with you. Alicia came up with the creative idea of sponging words onto Bitty Bags to customize them. Isn’t that darling? She used letter stickers as her “stencil” and sponged over them with ink to create custom bags. This would be such a fun way to customize bags for parties or put someone’s name on a bag. 

Supplies:
White Kraft Bags
Divine Twine
Ink
Sponge
Letter Stickers
Hole Punch

Hi friends! Today, I have a fun project to share with you from design team member Savannah O’Gwynn. Savannah made these cute tags with tag toppers to put into our Little Bitty Bags. Adding the toppers to the tags makes it easier for people to be able to take the tags in and out of the Bitty Bags. Plus, they are super adorable! Savannah used the exact same Bitty Bags and Colored Tags to make both these projects but came up with two completely different looks! These are perfect for giving gift cards or attaching to presents.



Supplies:
Polka Dot Little Bitty Bags
Colored Tags
Yellow Solid Divine Twine
Cardstock
Die Cuts
Flowers and Buttons
Stamps and Ink

Hi friends! Today, I have a layout from design team member Marie Ramirez to share with you. Marie is always amazing at layering lots of Whisker Graphics projects onto her layouts. Marie uses a fun technique where she uses our glassine bags to put her patterned papers in. This is a great way to subdue papers is you feel that they are slightly too bold for your layout. It’s also a great way to add a little bit visual interest without too much bulk.
Supplies:
Glassine Bitty Bag
Grid Little Itty Bag
Navy Solid Divine Twine
Patterned Papers
Die Cuts and Letter Stickers

Hi friends! Today, I have a really fun way to jazz up Bitty Bags from design team member Alicia Thelin. Alicia figured out that you can trim a band out of a Bitty Bag and slip it around the same size Bitty Bag as a fun accent. You can easily cut several bands out of one bag so this would be a good project to mass produce for a party or shower. With so many colors and patterns, you should be able to find something that matches your occasion perfectly. Alicia sewed her bag shut after she was done filling it, but you could leave yours open if you wanted to use these for people to fill their own party favors or if you had bigger items to put in.

Supplies:
Bitty Bags (2 of the same size)
Divine Twine
Stamps, Ink, and Cardstock

Hi friends! Today, I have a fun project from design team member Kerstie Pederson to share with you. Kerstie made these fabulous hanging baskets for May Day out of our Bitty Bags. Some people celebrate May Day by leaving baskets of flowers or treats for their neighbors and friends on their doorsteps. You’re actually supposed to leave them, run away, and the recipient is supposed to try to catch you. Kerstie used Bitty Bags to make her baskets which is a great idea because they are a lot more inexpensive than an actual basket and they are light enough to hang from the doorknob.


Supplies:
Middy Bitty Bags
Little Bitty Bags
Colored Tags
Glue and Scissors
Hole punch and Hole Reinforcer
Mulberry Flowers
Ribbon
Stamps and Ink
