Creative Bag Swap: Kitty Mitchell

Oh my! Kitty Mitchell from New York has sent in a gorgeous painted canvas sachel for our swap!! I think this is a very creative approach to our bag swap and I love what Kitty has done. Her painting is wonderful and on top of that she has added some fibers and real shells. Very cool!

I will add some additional photos below; click for more detail. Thanks so very much, Kitty!

  3. I am blushing!The fish are from a pk that came with my HP printer, I changed them to BW lineart, printed onto tshirt transfer paper, colored w/chalk and ironed to bag (also works with stamps for those scraps or transfer paper we ALL have, don't lie)The background is textile paint, thinned and sprayed with a small mister bottle. I am so pleased you like it.
