Creative Lettering is something I have always wanted to learn more about…I make all my custom cards and this will be *very* helpful.
To be able to add beautiful and creative lettering to handmade cards, signs, etc. would be wonderful! My handwriting is so-so and it just doesn’t do justice to a handmade card.
I would love to learn how to make beautiful letters – even legible ones!
Creative lettering is the perfect touch to a homemade gift
