How I do Typography

Hello everyone and welcome to another blog post. 
This one is a little different as it isn't cards or layouts or even mini albums. This post is for my Midori fans asked about my typograph I starting showing in some of the facebook groups. But scrapbookers and cards makers don't despair I am sure you will get some thing out of this too, so stick around. 


A little bit of history about how I can to do letter form. I have been doing this since I was about 10 years old but I took a few years hiatus but started up again last year when my psychologist recommended I use the skill for my depression and stress management. 



These are some of the pages I did last year.






This year after becoming enamoured with Midoris and started making my my own inserts I started working on these quotes.












Ok so now down to the how do I do it. 



 


Now to where I get my inspiration:


People I follow on Instagram

really like Tammy's stuff as it is very free and she does not come from a graphics typography background.


You can also just do google searches for typography. There are also design books on calligraphy and typography.

I hope you like this and that it inspires you to give it a try.
