I love the typography trend.
Artful lettering is so full of expression
in design and sentiment.
So a simple 1 x 8 board 6' long
is straight forward with the heartfelt expression,
"We're in this Together".
Here is my script pattern for you to use:
Because Life is a journey
and marriage is a blessing
it always comes back to the commitment
that "We're in this together".
I layered white paint over a brown base.
Pencil transfer the letters,
then use a small flat brush,
keeping it on it's side for the upstroke
and flatten and pull on the down stroke.
Use gloss black paint.
Then use a liner brush for a sketch detail
on all of the down strokes.
Just adds an extra bit of personality to the letters.
If you need to correct some mistakes like this:
(You can see some messy lines I tried wiping off)
You can use rubbing alcohol to get rid of those
unwanted paint marks.
Just knowing how to fix things is half the battle.
Kind of like the marriage journey!
I shaded the edges brown.
I love this sentiment on our wall.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
