I had the pleasure of hand lettering these place cards for a luncheon hosted by The American Heart Association on Friday, Feb. 1.

It was to celebrate their “Go Red for Women” campaign. The keynote speaker was former first lady, Laura Bush.

Also attending were some of Dallas’s lovliest ladies!

Go Red For Women® celebrates the energy, passion and power we have as women to band together to wipe out heart disease and stroke.

Thanks for helping women get healthy!

Calligraphy and Portrait Illustration for Letterpress Stationary

I created this personalized stationary for a client who was giving it to her sister as a Christmas/Wedding gift.

She gave me separate pictures of the couple and their three pets.

What’s not to love about these three cuties:)

I created a black and white drawing of the couple and each of their “children”, arranged them together then added the hand lettered last name.

I also created a return address for the envelope.

I handed over the digital file to the very capable hands of letterpress printer, Travis Friedrich of ParkLifePress.com.

He printed in a soft gray on a luxurious 100% cotton paper at 6.25″ by 4.5″ wide.

This was the second project I’ve done with Travis and both were perfection! And his pricing is very reasonable.

I hope the Bowmans were as pleased with the result as the gift giver was!

Belluccia Calligraphy Font used in Black and White Wedding

I love the crisp look of black and white! And I was thrilled to see my Belluccia calligraphy font was chosen to add to this couple’s classic look on Snippet & Ink’s blog.

It’s used on the Rehearsal dinner invite ( love the gray stripes in the background), Wedding invitation, RSVP and return envelope, as well as the program and favor bags seen in the last pic below.

The gray programs pop with the couples white initials and ribbon.

How darling are these monogrammed totes for the guests favors. I wonder what’s inside???

If you want to check out the whole shabang…go here.

Beautiful Calligraphy Fonts by Stephen Rapp

I’m excited to share this newly released calligraphy font, Slapjack, created by the fabulously talented Stephen Rapp. I’m a HUGE fan of his work!

Slapstick has a very versatile look. It would look beautiful on an invitation for a wedding or other event.

Or be a perfect fit for a logo or retail packaging. I could definitely see this on a wine label.

I am in love with that “h” !! And he did an incredible job with the all caps look.

Clear and readable yet stylish.

Here’s a little more about this versatile font.

Slapjack is a unique rendition of a broad-edged calligraphic script ideal for packaging, signage, and titling. With a glyph count well over 700, Slapjack is a fully-featured pro font. Using Adobe InDesign which supports Stylistic Sets allows you to instantly convert your text to a version without baseline connectors for a more streamlined look. These can also be selected via the glyph palette.

It’s so cool how you can choose to have a connected or non-connected look. It really changes the feel.

I had the pleasure of meeting Stephen in person and found him to be extremely humble for such a talented lettering artist as well as a truly kind hearted and gentle man.

I think his work beautifully represents those qualities.

Here’s a few samples of some of his other gorgeous fonts.

Hiatus is 30% off for a limited time!

This graphic shows off the gorgeous flourishes in Hiatus.

This historic look of Memoir has the look of beautiful handwriting.

These Memoir ligatures are perfect for envelope addressing.

Montague Script is another font that has a lot of versatility.

New Cuisine is one of my personal favorites and is 33% off for a limited time! Love the modern yet slightly retro look.

There are too many fab fonts to show here so be sure to check out his full collection on myfonts.com.

Here’s a little bit about Stephen:

Lettering and typography are his passion. He’s studied and practiced lettering and type design for over 2 decades. He was a recipient of the Hermann Zapf Scholarship Award in 1997 and has been a lettering artist and type developer for American Greetings since 2000.

Some of his accolades include:

Published in Letter Arts Review, Scripsit, Bound and Lettered, the recently released “Modern Mark Making” by Quarry books, and Typography 30 by The Type Directors Club.

He has taught classes and workshops on both calligraphy and lettering and has been a faculty member at the International Lettering Arts Conference and Typecon.

In addition to his work with American Greetings, Stephen designs commercially available fonts for P22, Veer, and MyFonts.

I’m delighted to know such a great designer and human being.

Enjoy this Marvelous Monday!

Calligraphy addressing on envelopes

I was thrilled to once again do calligraphy addressing of these envelopes for my clients darling photo Christmas cards.

The photography and card design are by the very talented Angela Weedon of Angela Weedon Photography.

The lettering is my “whimsy” style. It has a simple modern feel. It will be made into a font eventually:)

I love lettering in white on a color. It just looks so fresh!

I’m still getting back into “work mode” after having a lovely holiday with both of my sons at home and lots of fun visits from friends and family.

One big announcement for the new year…I’m finally opening an Etsy Shop! I will start selling my fonts there. We’ll see what else evolves.

I have plans to release at least 2 more fonts this year. Of course you’ll hear all about it as they progress.

In the meantime, here’s the links to all of my calligraphy fonts. I’m thrilled that they are both still on the Best Seller’s list!

Custom Calligraphy on Wine Glasses

These wine glasses with custom calligraphy were given as gifts by my client. Now that the holiday is over, I can finally share pics with you.

The bottoms were painted in yellow and black.

The word “believe” ( get it “bee-lieve:) was hand lettered on the body of the glass.

Then bees were painted with a flight path of black dots to link to the word. ( Most fun part!)

And of course one of them was chosen as “queen bee” with a gold crown on her head:)

I hope the ladies liked their gifts!

Enjoy your day!

Table Numbers and Place Cards in Calligraphy fonts

I was creating some samples for a potential client and thought I’d share these Table Numbers and Place Cards in my calligraphy fonts.

In the pic above I used my cursive font, Dom Loves Mary Stylistic version. The flourish on the capital T was created using a flourish from the Dom Loves Mary Flourishes Two set.

I used Dom Loves Mary text font for “TABLE 12” on the place card.

And in this pic, I’ve used my Belluccia font and Borders.

Here’s an example using Hand lettering. Using a Calligraphy font gives you the beautiful look of hand lettering at a fraction of the cost.

That’s why I created them!

With either Belluccia or Dom Loves Mary, you can easily design all of your event signage and print off your own computer.

Have a Wicked Weekend!

DIY Advent Tree for kids

Today I am sharing this darling Advent Calendar Tree with you.

The idea came from the lovely Mindy Rives, mom of two beautiful little girls. Instead of the traditional candy treat, each day is filled with a fun Christmas activity for your kids/family to participate in.

Here’s what Mindy did to create this tree for about $15.00 minus the tree:

1. She ordered the number printables off of Etsy (they were like $3.50)…printed, cut and glued them on miniature treat bags/envelopes from Michaels.

2. She bought mini clothes pins from Michael’s, tied bows around each one with red ribbon, filled each envelope with a Christmas activity and hung them on their smaller kitchen tree.

3. She came up with a list of activities that worked with her schedule. ( Mindy works 2 days a week. She is one of the lovely gals I get to work with at DFW Events🙂

She kindly gave me her list to share with you in a PDF file. Just click on Advent Activities .

4. She purchased supplies in advance for any craft projects. ( Michael’s is another great source for this.)

So far, her daughter has thoroughly enjoyed each day’s special activity.

I think this is a wonderful way to teach children about the spirit of Christmas:)

Thanks for sharing Mindy!

Have a wonder-filled Wednesday!
