    As usual you are so incredibly encouraging...your voice is so calming and reassuring. You're sharing the various pen types and how you started....I've ordered some. can't wait to try this and include it with my cards!

    I loved how you made that look so easy. I have been inspired to decorate a few envelopes after I watched you. It wasn’t as easy as I imagined, but I am determined to keep trying. I love your beautiful handwriting.

    Thank you, Kristina! I love calligraphy, too. Lots of videos on here to watch about that. Your videos are just wonder-filled ♥

    Kristina, I am so glad you shared the scripture! My writing has always been awful, but I can usually free-hand something creative. I recently found a book at a garage sale demonstrating calligraphy pens, nibs, and styles. I haven't done a thing with it, but I would like to. My maternal grandmother and many older men and women I have known had beautiful penmanship. It's a shame this next generation won't be able to write cursive at all. Thanks for sharing.

    I think your handwriting is beautiful. I've tried calligraphy in the past, it's lovely when done correctly. Enjoyed this video.

    Great video! Thanks! I've always struggled with trying to make just the right calligraphy, and you just shared that it is ok to embellish our own style. Thanks!

    Beautiful writing! I used to practice my writing and calligraphy all of the time many years ago but have lost my penmanship with all of this e-technology. 😢. I miss writing and I love the look of calligraphy. I have done wedding invitations in the past (what a chore!). You have inspired me to find my hand again! 😊

    @debican01 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    No wonder your so good at this if you've been doing it for so many years. It has paid off...now you do stamps in your own handwriting. Good job! :)

    It's just beautiful, Kristina. I learned hand lettering years ago in art school using a paint brush and India ink, and haven't touched it in years. This looks like so much fun to use a pen. Thank you for sharing. I'm going to have to pick up a brush marker and give it a try. Thank you for the inspiration. Take care, Kim :)

    that's the first video i've ever watched about brush lettering (to be honest: i don't know how i got here...) and it's the reason why i've ordered a six pack of tombow markers. they arrived today and - whoa, that's really difficult! it looks so easy when you do your writing! i think i've got to practice a looot ;) but it's real fun, thanks for bringing me into brush lettering :)

    Thanks for sharing this!! Very cool!! I'm obsessed with handwriting as well and tried calligraphy years and years ago but I got too frustrated with it. I was like 14 tho so no wonder I quit because of frustration. I've never tried writing with a brush marker like that before so I think I may give that a try!! Thanks Kristina!! :)

    with copic its best to use the copic sketch pad. It has a special coating because the ink in the markers is alcohol based.

    Thanks for this vid! Kinda into brush calligraphy lately. I bought "Kuratake" and "Pentel brush pen" few weeks ago. After it ran out of ink I refill them with "Speedball Super Black Waterproof India Ink" using my syringe. For some reason after few writing practice the result went kinda bad. It looks dry and not much ink flowing. The cartridge is full. I think there's a clog.
    Does it happen to you? And when you refill the cartridge what ink do you use?

    this was incredibly helpful! my friend recruited me to address all of her wedding invitations and i was going to use ink and nibs for the calligraphy but i think i might give the brush tip markers a go! one question though, would you just use a normal eraser to erase the pencil lines from the envelope after the ink dries or is there a special tool i should look into getting?

    @arlyhelm6219 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love your handwriting. Rather than letting Copic (or other) markers use up a second page, one could cut down one of those super thin plastic cutting mats from the kitchen section, and slip it behind the top sheet (the sheet one is writing on). Or perhaps a piece of thick blotting paper, or...

    I've just bought the wink of luna brush pen, and am I doing something wrong? the tip feels dry? I have the ink all the way through. when writing, I can get a good thin line, but when I do a thick line, so using the side of the brush more, it doesnt give a clean stroke, like its dry? Hope this makes sense!

    Is there a certain type of way you should hold a brush pen? I just bought the Artist Loft's Watercolor Dual Tip (brush/fine) markers yesterday thinking they would be good for a first timer. I wish I had seen this video first haha! The tips a very flexible, which I thought would be better, but I'm having a hard time with the transition from think to thin. I know practice makes perfect, but do you have any tips on how to better transition? I've heard there's a "best" way to hold it, but I cannot find the video that mentioned it. Any advice?

    • @SarahTypes
