Hi Crystal!
I am so sorry to hear about your husband. May he Rest In Peace. You are not too far from me (down here just past Nashville). It sounds like you are trying out some great skills. I have designed several tattoos - all lettering. It’s such an honor to design something that will be on someone’s body forever. Calligraphy and tattoos go hand in hand. Good for you for learning new stuff! I try to continually find new things to learn.

Welcome to Flourish!  :-*
Warm Regards,

Greetings, @ Crystalproffitt !  It is always a delight to have someone new join in. There is plenty in the Flourish Forum archives to browse to your heart's content, but a tremendous benefit is posing questions to the members. Everyone is so kind, and the scope of knowledge and experience here is phenomenal! I was recently surprised to have seen so many helpful comments on a recent question regarding calligraphy on cookies, so I'm certain any of your questions regarding calligraphy on skin would also result in many interesting replies.

Welcome!
