ID: Valerie Louis (May 2023) Again I decided to use one of the alphabets I transformed (Curls). On Black 2 sided photographic background paper, using the glossy side, wrote out the name with a Uniball Signo white gel pen and doodled with a Juice Up white pen. Card created during one of Barbara Close's border classes. |

ID: Violet Smythe (Apr 2023) I haven't played with Kersal/Versal lettering in a long time... On Edge Mixed Media Sketch paper, created my envelope and drew out the letters, surrounding boxes and curlicues with a Uniball Signo black gel pen. Painted the letters by loading it with water and dropping in Brusho and Color Burst powders (Brusho Yellow, Brilliant Red, Turquoise and Color Burst Lime Green) and moving them around a bit... Added some dots in the outer box. The rest of the name done in the Kersal's monoline style I created a long time ago using the Unibal pen, a Juice Up black pen for the border and Prisma colored pencils. You can see more Kersal stuff HERE that includes an exemplar |

ID: Jeanine Alexander (Apr 2023) On Fabriano 1264 Mixed Media paper created my envelope, created my letters with a Simple Simons #6 Chisel brush and water sprinkling each one at a time with Brusho and Color Burst powders (Brusho Yellow, Brilliant Red, Turquoise and Color Burst Lime Green). Outlined with a Juice Up black pen then shadowed with a Caran d'Ache 2B pencil and paper stump. When dry added a layer of Glossy accents. Created the stripe below with water and the same powders using a #12 brush. When dry wrote out her last name with the Juice Up pen.

For the knotwork design a Zig Writer and colored pencils and blended with a Lyra Splendor Blender. Kane with a 3.0 green Kuretake calligraphy marker, shadow and dot work with a Juice Up gold metallic pen. The card was one I did during one of the online classes I took taught by Zengoala. |

ID: Barbara Keir (Feb 2023) I just took the 1st day of Mike Kecseg's Pointed Pen lettering class and thought I'd put what I learned into practice... I used a Nikko G nib and Magic Color Delta Violet and Solar Scarlet for the background lettering. A Simple Simon #12 chisel brush and Payne's Grey watercolor for her last name. Added a Juice Up red outline around the large letters and the address with Bleed Proof white. The card was one I did during one of the online floral classes I took.
