May from Riley - Debby's graduation gig

 



Riley, Riley, Riley - you were very lucky that this envelope made it to me. It's much smaller than the minimum size requirement. Some of the rogue mail will make its way to the destination....but, I recommend sticking with the sizes that they prefer.

CyberScribes is a very old list-serve from before the turn of the century (or are we supposed to say the turn of the millennium?) that still has a few calligraphers posting things. I thought this was fun and asked the person who posted it if I could repost. She said -yes- and sent some additional photos. In addition to writing names they would write sayings or words requested by the graduates. I used to do gigs like this and it was So.Much.Fun.

Here is Debby's post from CyberScribes:

Merri Klar and I had a fun late(!) evening doing calligraphy for a local Safe Grad party after their high school graduation. This is my third year doing it and it is such a treat to see how much the teens appreciate receiving a custom piece of calligraphy done with their choice of words. My favorite moment last night was when a group of young men picked up their calligraphy and I heard an appreciative, "That's sick!" Brings joy to this calligrapher's heart LOL!

 

Have a great day,
