Another week of lettering lessons! I love how every lettering style speaks in a different way. We who are teaching try to select a font that reflects the spirit of the word we are going to focus on.
Monday we got lots of letters to practice because the focus word was a long one... 'treasured'.
The font was not a squared as I made it but I liked my version better. It has hearts embedded in each letter and little 'stitching' lines along one line. These can both be moved to suit yourself.
On Tuesday we got the whole alphabet. This is an all-caps font.
I liked the way the letters looked when I squared them off on Monday so I kept doing that for my exemplar.
Wednesday was for making an acrostic with the letters from 'treasured'. I made all of mine action words.
I made my initial letters bigger and filled in their hearts. On the rest of the letters I left the hearts hollow.
I made little banners to make the initial letters stand out.
Thursday was the day to use the new fontto write out a verse.
I used the hearts in the illustration so I left them (and the stitches) off the letters.
Friday we move on to using the letters in our Bible.
I used one of the hearts from the Drawing Room on my page and left off the hearts and stitches again on the letters.
And that wraps up another week.
