    I also love writing haiku that I write, in calligraphy, on strips of brown paper bags. I punch a hole in one end, with a regular office hole punch, add a string. I like to leave them tied to neighbors’ doors. They are called weathergrams, and the neighbors are supposed to tie them to a bush or tree, and watch them through the seasons. I had one last on one of my plants a couple years! I used acrylic ink, so it held up to the weather. It’s fun to repurpose the brown paper bags. They make great wrapping paper, with a sprig of dried eucalyptus, or rosemary, and a hemp twine bow. Thank you!

    I use almost anything for backgrounds on my cards. Paper bags, wrapping paper, kitchen roll. Anything. Depending on the quality of the paper I do use "as is" or emboss. But I've never thought of stamping them. You've given me some new ideas. Thanks

    Such a wonderful idea! Years ago, I saved some vintage looking paper bags that already had images on them, but hadn't thought of doing this clever idea. I remember as a kid, my mom using paper bags for our textbook covers and we could draw on them. Gosh, you could even use these bags for gift wrap or creating a decorative band across a clear box with matching notecards. So cool! Absolutely love your creativity! Thank you so much for sharing this idea.

    Brandy, this is soooooo spooky ha ha - not your card, the fact you are showing this today. Only yesterday, I was clearing out all the paper gift bags, I seem to collect them - some of them have lovely patterns on already, and I though mmm that would make a lovely backdrop to the front of a card a DSP and i could put something on top of it, as you have just done with your bird. I also kept the rope that was the handle of the bag as I can use that when sewing different things. Oh great minds think alike - thanks Brandy for another LOVELY video. Linda x
