Mother’s Day card, 2012

I made this Mother’s Day card today. I made two, one for my mom, and the other for my wife’s mom. I used Parallel Pens and gel pens. My wife punched out the corners with one of her Stampin’ UP! corner punches.

Mother's Day Card, 2012

A friend and I went to Walmart, where we ate lunch. Then while he went shopping, and I stayed behind at the table practicing calligraphy with my Shaeffer pen and 3×5 cards while looking through my iBook copy of Lisa Engelbrecht’s, Modern Calligraphy and Hand Lettering on my iPod touch. I got the idea of breaking up the lettering from one of the samples in the ebook. I had just finished taking her latest 3-session workshop on Letterista lettering at Barbara Close’s gallery.
