One of my ATC swap groups is doing a handwriting swap. How could I not join in the fun?! I checked with the swap coordinator to make sure lettering was okay...not just my everyday handwriting and she said of course...so I went to work. I couldn't find quotes that I liked that were small enough to fit on the cards so I just made up some little inspirational thoughts.
I made these 2.5x3.5" cards by painting wet-on-wet watercolor as a background. The writing was done with Micron pens. They looked a bit boring still so I splashed on Pearl Ex powders mixed with glaze and water on top. Out in the mail they go today...can't wait to see what I get back!

Love these! You sure are involved in some fun projects!
I love your artwork and calligraphy! How do I join an ATC swap that involves handwriting?
Elizabeth, the group I'm in has never done a handwriting swap before, it just depends on the theme of the host. There are tons of Yahoo groups (can you say Yahoo on a Google blog without it blowing up?) that do ATC swaps, just look around and I'm sure you'll find some fun groups to join!
They are just lovely Carolyn!! I always love to see your new work.
