Magic Monday! Just Keep Tracing & Improve Your Calligraphy

How is your Monday going? Do you need a cute motivational quote to brighten your day? Let’s practice tracing ‘just keep swimming’ with our Dream pens and Multicolor Small Brush pens. The movie “Finding Dori” is one of my faves!

After I wrote this phrase in a bouncy modern calligraphy style with my ‘Ocean’ Dream pen (of course, I had to use Ocean!), I decided to add some cute orange ‘fishy crackers’ swimming  below with my Sunset Small Brush pen.

Then I thought, well, let’s also add an orange drop shadow to tie it all together. But wait. Maybe the reverse colours would look better, so I wrote the quote again with my Sunset Dream pen and drew shadows with the Ocean pen.

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).
