Done is better than perfect! ✨ . I’ll be honest with you guys, these are not my favorite letters in the alphabet. 🤔 I and K especially because there are only so many ways to do them (that I could think of). Buuuuut, I did it anyway! 🌈 . I am using these videos as a way to practice - not as a way to try to prove to you I’m super creative and can think of a million different ways to make one letter on the fly. I try to use different pens and just show you a normal practice page. . I hope that helps you to practice and be happy with what you create! We don’t need to put extra pressure on ourselves to have our practice always be perfect! I say let’s just be true to ourselves! . So, grab a pen and practice those letters! Remember #abcsofjuly has no strict timeline- the goal is simply to get from A to Z! You can do multiple letters at once or four at a time like I did! ✨ You can post on your story, on your page, in our Facebook group, OR keep it to yourself. Just practice! 💛

Happy #fridayintroductions ✨ . Some of you may be new around here and others we haven’t connected in a while, so I thought it was time for a little re-intro. 🤗 . My name is Alyssa & I live in Central California 🌴 I have a BS in Foundational Mathematics and teach first grade! 👩🏼‍🏫✨ . Here are some fun/random facts about me, tell me if you and I have something in common! 💛 . 🐽 I love pigs so much. I have since I was very little. When asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would say “a pig!” . 💑 I married the cutie in the picture last July! His name is John & we grew up going to the same church! He plays guitar and makes the best coffee! . ✍🏻 I started calligraphy at the beginning of 2015 to relieve some stress. I thought it was impossible and that I would never be able to use a brush pen properly. So, that should motivate you if you’re struggling!! 🙌🏻 . ✈️ I love traveling! We are building up our to-go list for the coming years. First on my list are Italy & Hawaii! The best place I’ve visited so far was Rio de Janeiro! . 📚. I have always been very organized and particular (you should see inside all my drawers/closets), thus it should not surprise you that I am an #enneagram1 (but a very fun 1! 😝) Ps. I would love if you told me your enneagram number, it is all so intriguing! ✨ . If you read this far, thank you! I’m just a letter-loving doodler who likes to create in my spare time! I love to help others and encourage them to love who they are and work hard! Thanks for following along! 🤗✨

The most effective way to learn something new is to start. ✨ . Seems obvious, right? You can’t really learn something if you aren’t willing to TRY. And yet we avoid things because we don’t know where to start or we are afraid we won’t be good at it! But you know what? When you start something you will probably be a little bit bad at it. 😬 So, honestly, you might as well start so you can get better and better! . The fact that you’re here tells me you probably are interested in brush calligraphy SO if you haven’t started- why not? Pause & think! 🤔 (if it’s something else you need/want to start, think about that!) . We each get to decide what we do with our time and resources. The way we spend our time shows what is actually important to us. We can talk all we want, but our actions truly show what we are interested in! . Learning something new takes discipline & patience. You have to be willing to put in some effort to get where you’re trying to go. And, spoiler alert, you CAN DO IT! ✨ . So, If you needed a push- this is it! Grab a pen & make some letters. You don’t even have to post them, this is for YOU! Just start! 💛

Still better late than never! ✨ . Feeling behind? Do a bunch of letters together! You don’t have to spread it out perfectly at all- just remember the goal: start at a and get to z! . There are multiple videos packed into this post! The first one just shows all the letters I was practicing. Swipe 👉🏻 and you’ll find more of each letter in both lower and uppercase styles! . It’s fun to use different pens and different colors while practicing because it shows you the range and variety available in these little brush pens! . I’m so loving seeing all your #abcsofjuly posts! Thank you to those of you who are joining in- and it’s not too late if you’ve been thinking about it! . And remember: no perfect letters needed! There is a very high chance that you are your own worst critic. So, encourage yourself and post your progress! Don’t try to be perfect- just be you! 💛

The easiest way to figure out your style is to practice. ✨ . Try each letter as many different ways as you can so that you can find the way that you like best! I even recommend circling your favorites and crossing out your least favorites. Then go back and trace all the circled ones again later! . Try as many different pens as you can so that you can find the pen you love the best! Side note: at a lot of stores where they sell brush pens, you can try them out before you buy them. . Here is my letter d for #abcsofjuly 💛 Have you been wanting to practice your lettering, but don’t know how to start?! Join us! Start at a and make your way to z! It’s that simple. . And swipe 👉🏻 if you want to skip the video and see all the letters.

A sea of crayola c’s. . Day 3 of #abcsofjuly is the letter c! Love it or hate it, it’s the next letter in the alphabet. 🤔 . This time I only used crayola markers to create my different letters. Grab a pen and make your letters! . But first, here’s the real question. Do you LOVE or HATE the letter c? I honestly just feel like it’s a boring letter, but that is probably just a personal problem. 😝
