  Step 1

  Print or draw a dog (or cat or bird) template. (Card stock is easier to trace around than plain paper.) Decide where on the bag it will go.

• 

  Step 2

  Trace around the template with a pencil.

• 

  Step 3

  Decide where the stripes will start. Draw a line to mark the bottom of the first stripe.

• 

  Step 4

  Measure and mark the top of the stripe (these stripes are 5/8" tall). To keep things easy, I made the stripes a ruler width apart.

• 

  Step 5

  Continue marking off stripes.

• 

  Step 6

  Fill in the stripes with a fabric marker. Be careful not to touch the stripes until they are completely dry and DO NOT color inside the animal outline. It took three coats to get the stripes this dark, and the canvas is still not completely saturated.

• 

  Step 7

  Allow fabric marker to dry.

• 

  Step 8

  Outline the animal silhouette with fabric paint. (I couldn't find a gold fabric marker, that is why the silhouette is done in fabric paint.)

• 

  Step 9

  Use a paintbrush to spread the paint into a thin layer.

• 

  Step 10

  Continue, filling in the entire silhouette.

• 

  Step 11

  Add a second coat. Let dry and enjoy!
