I started my week by listening to an Instagram live as I made these little #envelopes. I completed a #weddingpoem for a client and still had the practice pages on layout bond paper intact. For each piece I do, I practice the #calligraphy and make a couple drafts to plan for the final piece. I have definitely wasted time and materials by not planning ahead! Sometimes the mistakes help us settle into the depths of what we love and what we have to do to support it. This is #Copperplate script written in #sumi #ink with a #Hunt101 nib. Envelope template from @papersource.

Sláinte, Gaelic for "health". Happy St. Patrick's Day, friends, family, colleagues and fans! Cheers! Take care of yourself and each other, get some fresh air, and count the things you're lucky for 😉🍀 Written with a #5 Automatic Pen, a gift, and Finetec and Windsor and Newton watercolors 😍

Yesterday I assembled and delivered a set of Save the Date magnets to a client (my mom! 😍). She gasped and smiled as she thumbed through the stack of stamped, sealed, addressed envelopes. I'm sure she thought of each person as she saw their names. The magnets and envelopes are one of the first tangible things that was her idea made into a reality while planning the wedding. She said, "I LOVE THEM! They're perfect, better than I could have imagined!" Ohhh yeah. That's what I'm going for, every time.

This is my ink holder and pen rest after addressing envelopes for a couple different wedding clients. There are gold, black, and white splashes and drips. I do clean it regularly, but I think the drops I leave behind as I work make the piece of equipment into a work of art too. Makes me wanna write m o r e. Inkholder gifted to me by the skillful @biancamascorroart. The note she wrote with it read, "It will get stained with ink! Don't sweat it!" Thanks Bianca ❤
