Boring Bag by Filter017
If there’s anything we love more than vectors, it’s thought-provoking vectors. A pack of stickers labeled Boring Bag on sale by graphics design group Filter017 include provocative characters such as a bleeding banana. Their work resembles similarities to that of Jared Nickerson and has a retro design feel to it. Filter017 design on anything and everything from Wallets, Pillows, Postcards, Memos and of course Key Covers. If you like what you see, why not drop into one of the many places they can be found at.

Nineteen years of age, studying Fine Art at Lancaster University she describes herself as passionate and creative. Also, let’s not also forget, she has an awesome name. You can find her on Tumblr, Youtube, Twitter and of course, flickr.
