I have always loved to "make" fonts. As a kid, when I was in class I was forever doodling and changing my "signature". I was excellent at forging my parents signatures-- Uh wait, no that wasn't me, they really signed that permission slip that I forgot to give them for the last two weeks.
It was not until I grew up that I learned that writing in different styles was a thing AKA "lettering" . As you know I love to zenthangle/doodle. Well I was on
Pinterest (which I have now made a lettering board) the other day and I noticed a few beautiful quotes and I said, hey I can do that. So I tried. I made this, and realized how helpful a rule might be.

Never really thought about how much I like letters! |
So I got a ruler.. and it helped a lot! :)

RULERS are good! Nice to see some straight lines! |
While cruzin' the net I ran across
Fun Stamper's Journey post about giving away stamps at the Scrapbook EXPO so then made another one inspired by the
Fun Stamper's Journey post about blooms. I really enjoy the lettering with color. I then had a moment of AH-HA...This inspires me. I love to make pretty things, so be prepared, I have yet ANOTHER thing I really like doing. Lettering. If you have any ideas or great resources please share them in the comments! Oh hey, Go Make Something!
