Whisker Graphics Design Team

I am really excited to share with you one of my new ventures today.  In the coming months you will be seeing DIY projects that I am creating exclusively for Whisker Graphics.  Whitney Beard, the creative mastermind behind the oh-so-wonderful Divine Twine, recently contacted me and asked if I wanted to be a part of her Design Team, a group that will be creating inspirational projects with her products.  I am a huge fan of Divine Twine and Bitty Bags and figured it wouldn't be too hard for me to make up some DIYs for Whitney since I use these items so often in my work anyway.  I am always looking for ways to encourage my own creativity and so I jumped at the opportunity to work with Whitney.  I will be joined by six other fabulous ladies who will be helping bring fresh new projects to Whisker Graphics blog readers all month.  Check out the introduction post to see the rest of the team.  

As I said, I use Divine Twine very often in my DIYs and personal work.  It is just simple twine but still so cute and it gives a hint of vintage bakery to your packaging and paper goods.  I have a few colors on hand in my personal collection but hope to acquire a few more because I can't get enough packaging supplies.  Seriously, I think I have a problem.  Anything packaging, I need to have.  You guys understand my addiction right?

So here is a little roundup of some of my past projects that involved Divine Twine to get you pumped for my upcoming projects.  Do you remember these babies?

My first DIY project I ever did.  Vintage postcards with embroidered belly bands...complete with twine!

On the left is some of my twine from my craft class.  On the right, some s'mores favors that I made for a little boy's cowboy birthday party.  Image by Nicole Leone Photography.

My s'mores favors DIY that I created for Valley & Co last year.  A hint of red and white twine there at the bottom.

Inspirational workspace image...I haven't shared this one yet.  Other than the red twine, I also have grey, pink, and most recently the airmail twine.  It's all so yummy!

Are you a big fan of Divine Twine and packaging like me?  Do you have any suggestions for what I should make in the coming months?  Any suggestions are welcome.  What would you like to see?

My first project will be coming soon and I can't wait to share it with you.  Happy Wednesday friends!
