I missed May’s newsletter! I’m sorry, but I was traveling in May and didn’t have time to send out a newsletter. You can read about my trip and lots of other info HERE in my monthly newsletter.
For this hand lettering sample, I printed the word ‘summer’ with a Kuretake pink brush pen because I wanted a really vibrant hot pink, and this pen delivered! If you haven’t tried this brand of brush pen (large tips) I highly recommend.
I wrote ‘sunshine’ with the Kelly Creates Sunshine Dream pen.
Then I drew drop shadows with the Kelly Creates Grape Multicolor Small Brush pen. It’s good to remember that drop shadows don’t always have to be black – be creative!
If you can’t find my original set of small brush pens above because they are discontinued, then a comparable set with a bright pink would be the Pentel Sign Fude brush tip pen HERE pictured below.

You can find sets of Kelly Creates Dream pens and Multicolor Small Brush pens plus all lettering and watercolor supplies in my new Amazon Storefront.
Did you know I have ‘Bouncy’ tracing workbooks to help you learn this modern calligraphy style? One is for large brush pens and the other is for small brush pens.
If you’re new to brush lettering, you can find out more about how to start learning calligraphy as a beginner by clicking HERE. It’s a good idea to learn your ABCs before you start writing words. Jumpstart your skills with my Kelly Creates Workbook for Large Brush Pens, Deluxe Lettering Kit and Smooth Practice Paper pad, which is suitable for all ages!
Another good choice for pens is the Deluxe Lettering kit and the 3-pack of Black brush pens too. (You can also order most of my lettering supplies from my Amazon Storefront).
All are available in my online store at http://www.KellyCreatesStore.com (we ship international) or you can click HERE to see where to purchase my products at retailers around the world.
You also need to print on smooth paper like HP LaserJet Premium 32 lbs. or use tracing paper(Canson Marker paper) on top of regular copy paper, which is too rough for brush tips and will damage them.
