jan's wilt

i am calling this style of lettering *wilt* even when i don't use the wilt stamps.

i thought i was going to make one last envelope with this style and then be done with it. but, i messed up the D in hardt, so i had to experiment with making a middle weight stroke, instead of just thick and thin. then i thought of putting in those diamond shapes and i really liked them. i do not like the double strokes and i made a complete mess of the IA, but then i put a stamp on it, so i will go ahead and mail it to jan as a thank you for running the exchanges. but i will request that she compost this one.

thanks, jan, for running the envelope exchanges for us.

BY THE WAY
if you participate in exchanges
and if you ever come up short - and do not receive the number of envelopes that you were expecting
please send an email to Jan and let her know
thanks
or, you may email me and i will forward to jan

    1. I liked the double strokes so much I somehow posted my comment twice. But then I couldn't make evidence of my deleted second comment disappear. Ha! :)

  4. I'll have to let you know later. I have some markets in three sizes that I got from John Neal and thought they were Sakura but the description on his website sounds different. I'm out of town. Will let you know next Friday.
