Hand lettering is all the rage right now, and I'm on a mission to practice and get better at it! So I put together this list of helpful tutorials:
Check out this fabulous Hand Lettering with Copic tutorial over on the Imagination International Inc. blog. David Sorrell walks you through everything from beginning to end -- choosing your word or phrase, spacing, balance, details, ink, etc. He used Copic Multiliners SP (0.2, 0.5, 0.7) and Copic Classic Marker to create this wonderful hand lettered Courageous sign!
This tutorial by Lisa Funk and Addi Robison walks you through and easy process on how to create a faux calligraphy Thank You note. They used the Copic Multiliner Brush Medium Pen, the Copic Multiliner 0.8 Pen and the Copic Multiliner 0.5 Pen.
This Mother's Day card tutorial by Melody Howe gives you a free downloadable template you can customize, along with a free downloadable alphabet which you can trace. To make this an easy process, use X-Press It Graphite Transfer Paper. Customize it and make it into a faux hand lettered card or sign for any occasion!
In this Father's Day Mug Card tutorial, Melody Howe gives you another free downloadable coffee mug template which you can customize with a different free downloadable alphabet! Same as above, just use the transfer paper to customize the saying you'd like to have on the coffee mug!
If you would like to take a hands-on class in person with a Copic instructor, this Hand Lettering Class will be offered on January 20, 2018 in Phoenix, AZ.
Are you a hand lettering pro? If so (or if you are still learning!), please share your best tips, tutorials, and websites, so I can take a look at them!
Happy November!
