Gold on Lettra

Gold Ink Chicago Calligrapher

Burgues Script in Gold

Wedding Envelope Chicago Calligrapher

This is Dr. Martin's Copperplate Gold on Crane's Lettra envelopes.  I tried to capture the texture of the paper, the raised quality of the ink, and the glittery sparkle.  Nothing compares to holding the envelope in your hand and turning it to the light, though.

Burgues script, flourished

Your calligraphy is beautiful! I am about to do some calligraphy for a client and they have ordered Crane's Lettra envelopes as well. I am fairly new to calligraphy, so I know that textured paper is not great for calligraphy. Did you have any issues working with the Lettra envelopes? Thank you for any advice you have!
