I usually love challenges and this one is right up my alley. All words done on Staples 110# white cardstock.

ID: "Ornaments"
Size: 6"w x 2.5"h

A Funky monoline lettering with a black Zig Writer. All the "o" shaped portions of the letters became the Xmas Ornaments...

ID: "Poinsettia" 
Size: 7.5"w x 4"h

Another funky lettering style which I saw on Waltzing Matilda Mouse stamps and I created the rest of the alphabet and I call it "Fickle" done with the fine tip of a black Zig Writer.

Drew in a poinsettia in the background using a Micron .05 pen and added some graphite shading.

ID: "Quality Time"
Size: 7"w x 5.5"h

This lettering style is really close to my heart. I took a few classes with Lisa Engelbrecht (Letterista Style). She passed away in 2014 and I miss her lots.

She created this lettering style inspired by Chaz Bojorquez who is a graffiti artist.

I used a 3.8 Parallel pen with Sumi ink and a graphite pencil and paper stump shadowing and added white gel pen squares within the squares.

ID: "Reindeer"
Size: 6"w x 3"h

This is more of Lisa's style lettering again done with the 3.8 parallel pen.

ID: "Snowflake" 
Size: 4.5"w x 4"h

I used the fine tip of a black Zig Writer to create the snowflake shape and write the words. Then the bullet tip for the dots on the letters.

ID: "Toboggan" 
Size: 8.5"w x 4"h

A mix of lettering styles using a 6.0 Parallel pen and Sumi ink and shadowing in a Tolga Girgin style. I really like the way it looks like the word is sliding down the mountain...

ID: "Unwrap" 
Size: 5.5"w x 3.5"h

Using both tips from the Zig Writer and pencil shading in a graffiti style.
