It's bright and pretty. I am interested in learning how to make big, loopy letters, too, so I hope you do the tutorials. I've tried some hand lettering on my envelopes, but my letters look like I'm wearing a corset. I love the free look that a real calligrapher gets. I'm signed up for a calligraphy/meditation course through adult ed. at the Des Moines Public Schools. Maybe that will help some.

I think the secret is to deconstruct the letters so that you are just thinking of basic shapes. Also, try some whole arm swirls - where you don't make the curves with your fingers or wrists.<br />I was happy to see that you had switched from computer lettering to hand lettering on your most recent envelope. I'm sure you can pick up hand lettering if you want to. Computer lettering is fun, too. It's just nice to have both options.jean wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10380435791596841268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9190979569332239219.post-14964512975364764742016-09-07T10:21:16.161-05:002016-09-07T10:21:16.161-05:00Ohhh, I really like this envelope!
