Lettering can be fun and easy, but it can also
really make your work stand out. This book
shows you how to create a ton of effects
from shadows to zigzags, swirls to stitches,
and curves to slants. Each of these lettering
effects will add color, interest, and pizazz to
your projects!
Whether you’re painting a sign, putting up a
bulletin board, designing an appealing page
in your journal, sending an invitation, or doing
a craft project, this book will have an alphabet
for you. Use these pages to learn and practice it.
In a world where everything is a computerized
font, your handwritten touch will mean so
much more.
As you practice, you may find that you’re
gradually creating your own signature lettering
style. That’s great! You can let it develop
naturally,
