Trying to get a close up video is not an easy task! A couple tries later and I ended up most happy with how this angle turned out. I didn't quite stay in the lines like I normally would but this should hopefully show how I'm creating the #watercoloreffect with my markers and pens! How cool so that!? Tag me so I can see your awesome work! 💕 #watercolor #watercolorwithmarkers #crayoligraphy . . . 🖋: @tombowusa #dualbrushpen & @crayola broad tip . 🗒: @cansonpaper XL mix media . #handlettering #scriptlettering #handwriting #tombow #tombowusa #calligraphy #lettering #handmadefont #brushlettering #brushcalligraphy #handwrittenletters #moderncalligraphy #typography #theletterlovelies #sweetsthrnsass

I personally am a huge fan of the @olympics. The summer games are probably my favorite so naturally I had to paint and letter something about it.

When this is the view you get to see everyday while at work 👌🏻

Happy birthday, Harry Potter! Who else is pumped for the #HappyBirthdayHarryPotter marathon on @freeform?!

When you find the cutest scrub tops that are actually comfortable and soft. 👌🏻 #nurse #nicunurse #scrubs #nurselife

bouquet of pink roses from my parents to celebrate the first week of my dream job! the pink is so intense and I love it. thanks y'all! 💗

attempted my first ever #wreath and I think I'm obsessed already. I've tried a couple other details but this is by far my favorite. (thanks @surelysimpleblog for the inspiration and tutorial!). I used a @staedtlermars black pen rather than a #micron. to me, they write pretty similarly! what details do y'all like when making wreaths? #mysurelysimple • • 🗒: @cansonpaper XL mix media • • • #handlettering #scriptlettering #handwriting #tombow #tombowusa #calligraphy #lettering #handmadefont #brushlettering #brushcalligraphy #handwrittenletters #moderncalligraphy #typography #theletterlovelies #sweetsthrnsass

Wings of Hope • I wrote this out for my mom to hang in my parents' house in Montana. Seriously obsessed with wreaths right now. I'm constantly doodling new floral ideas or leaves. Tag me in your favorite floral wreaths! // #montana #floralwreaths #handdrawnwreaths #wreaths #wingsofhope #customletters • • • #handlettering #scriptlettering #handwriting #tombow #tombowusa #calligraphy #lettering #handmadefont #brushlettering #brushcalligraphy #handwrittenletters #moderncalligraphy #typography #theletterlovelies #sweetsthrnsass

I feel like this is something people so often forget. Your mistakes don't define you, it's how you respond, it's how you learn, it's how you move on from the mistake that defines you! // continuing to attempt getting out of my comfort zone by letting letters overlap. Seriously no clue what I'm doing so just gonna keep at it until it makes sense. // #letteringwithpositivity @lettersbyshells • 🖋: @tombowusa #dualbrushpen • 🗒: @cansonpaper XL mix media • • • #handlettering #scriptlettering #handwriting #tombow #tombowusa #calligraphy #lettering #handmadefont #brushlettering #brushcalligraphy #handwrittenletters #moderncalligraphy #typography #theletterlovelies #sweetsthrnsass

is this a new #instagram feature? honestly wouldn't be surprised if I'm years late in figuring this out... 🙄

My thoughts and prayers go out to all the lives lost by the shootings in Dallas, but especially to the law enforcement officers that risk their lives on a daily basis to keep us safe. #prayforDallas
