hand lettering round up

i haven't had a lot of time for free-style art... or blogging for that matter, lol. but i try to sneak a bit in here and there:

@letteringbymhel and @inkcitra are the hostesses 

of the #WinterLetteringChallenge on instagram, 

which is really fun and inspiring; i've been watching more 

than i've actually participated so far, but that's ok.

i love aaria baird's wreaths... 

and her videos really do make you feel like 

OF COURSE you can do that too! :)

@letteringbybeth did a little illustration of xmas lights 

that i just had to try for myself!

on two successive nights my entire handlettering output 

consisted of putting names on envelopes... 

but at least i got to try out a few more instagram-inspired 

lettering styles, like the knitted sweater and gradient letters!

finally, to show how long it's been since i did an IG update, here's a bit of lettering from *THANKSGIVING*!!!

i'm sure you're as consumed as i am with holiday prep, but i still hope this sunday finds you sneaking in a tiny bit of creative "me" time!!! ♥♥♥
