Nature always inspires me to be creative! I am surrounded by flowers on my new island home, so let’s write ‘bloom wild’ in a modern calligraphy bouncy style.
I used 2 Kelly Creates Dream pens for this sample: Blossom and Sunshine. I wrote the words with Blossom and also added some simple daises with the same pink brush tip.
To create these tiny flowers, just press the side of your large brush tip flat onto the paper and lift straight up. Try not to move the pen at all while doing this. Rotate the paper to create all the petals.
Then I used the Sunshine Dream pen to add tiny yellow centres to the middle of the petals. So simple and sweet.

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!
You can use both large and small brush pens to trace the words, such as the Kelly Creates Dream pens and the Multicolor Small Brush pens. 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 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.
After you finish tracing, practice your freehand skills on my super smooth Kelly Creates Paper Pads. I highly recommend using the Dotted or Lined pads (never practice on blank paper).
