A new year, and this time a new decade, brings time to renew focus on what we love. For me, it's calligraphy! Earlier this month, I spent some time making new envelope samples, to showcase some of the inks I've been loving!

It's so much fun to dream up fictional addresses for samples. I tend to pick characters and couples from favorite books and movies, although historical figures could work too! Ms. Bridget Jones above was done in shimmering ink: Bronze from the Finetec Pearl Colors palette.

With the same palette, using Red, I tried out a much more whimsical style than what I'm used to, for my favorite time-traveling duo.

Black ink on a crisp white envelope is classic! Here I used Iron Gall Ink. 

These white envelopes are from Cards and Pockets. I've tried a handful of their colored envelopes, and the quality is wonderful. I'll be sharing samples of calligraphy on colored envelopes in the coming weeks. 

Like my work? I'd be happy to be your calligrapher! Reach out to me by email to chat about availability and pricing.
