Whisker Graphics: Extra-Ordinary





Today is my Whisker Graphics Day!  Have you checked out the shop lately?  It's chock full of new goodies!

I'm featuring a Brown Kraft bag with a twist:

cardstock:  ranger watercolor paper  stamps:  create a smile/botanical love  ink:  ranger archival black, kuretake gansai tambi  other:  create a smile/stacked pierced banners/cool cuts, studio calico veneer, apple barrel/key west/acrylic paint

The twist?!  I took acrylic paint and literally painted wide stripes of color!  I love the free form look and matte look!  I hit the wet paint with my heat gun for a smidge and layered the bloom and banner.

Brown Kraft Bags


These bags are a must have in your stash.  I decorated this particular one and dropped in some fun crafty goodies for a visiting blogging friend...BAM, fabulously fun & ready to give!

I'd love for you to pop over to the Whisker Graphics Blog to say hello!
