Slip Band Bitty Bags

April 11th, 2013 § 0 comments

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

Ticket to My Heart Card

April 9th, 2013 § 2 comments

Hi friends! Today, I have a beautiful card from Michelle Philippi to share with you. Michelle created a fabulous love card even though it has some more feminine touches, the masculine colors makes it perfect for a man too. Divine Twine is a great way to add fibers to a masculine project because it’s thin and the look isn’t too frilly.

Supplies:

Orange Divine Twine

Cardstock

Patterned Paper, Chipboard, Stickers, Die Cuts

Heart Punch and Mini Stapler

Heart Pin, Washi Tape, Sequins

Stitched Tag with Divine Twine

April 5th, 2013 § 0 comments

Hi friends! Today, I have a beautiful card from design team member Joscelyne Cutchens to share with you. Joscelyne used Solid Divine Twine to stitch the main image on one of our Colored Tags for her card. This is such a fun way to change it up from using the usual stamping, die cut, or stickers. It’s always fun to change it up every now and then. Plus, it’s a great alternative way to use your twine rather than just tying it onto the card or tag.

Supplies:

Large Colored Tag (white)

Solid Divine Twine (Navy)

Cardstock and Patterned Paper

Computer Generated Sentiment

Ribbon, Sequins, and Enamel Dots

Stitching Template

May Day Baskets with Bitty Bags

April 4th, 2013 § 0 comments

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

For more photos and a comprehensive how-to of this project, check out Kerstie’s post HERE.

Mustache Bitty Bag

March 22nd, 2013 § 0 comments

Here’s something I just had to share with you created by our very own Carmen, who works here at Whisker Graphics headquarters. It’s a fun and functional Goody bag or, should I say, Goodies Bag! The best part is, it’s a cinch to make. Simply make a jagged edge about halfway up a Diagonal Striped Bigger Bitty Bag then cut a window just big enough to fit the word “Goodies”. Insert a Goodies Bitty Bag and Voila – you have your treat bag! Carmen lined this one with a Glassine Bag so the butter from the popcorn wouldn’t seep through the outer bag. You could also fill it with candy and tie it off with some Divine Twine. And, although I love the mustache, use any art to suit your occasion. Or, mix it up and use a different colored Bitty Bag or even a different design. The possibilities are endless!

Have fun! ~ Joy

Bitty Bag Easter Eggs

March 21st, 2013 § 0 comments

Hi friends! Today, I have a super cute idea from design team member Amy Cluck to share with you. Amy used our Bitty Bags to decorate some hollowed out eggs for Easter. This is a great alternative to dying eyes. She made decoupaged eggs and eggs with strips of Bitty Bags tied around them and some Divine Twine. These would make a lovely decoration and since the eggs are hollowed, you can leave them out for a long time without the fear of spoiling. These would also be pretty to use on each place setting at Easter dinner.

Supplies:

Bitty Bags

Divine Twine

Eggs

Needle (to hollow out eggs)

Decoupage medium
