Open Flourish | General Discussion / Travelling with nibs

« on: April 24, 2015, 10:47:37 PM »

Hey guys!! I have a question, does anybody know if I'm allowed to bring the nibs in my carry-on luggage? Will it be an issue to the custom security at the airport??
Thanks!

Favorite Resources / Ink store, Paper pad store in CANADA

« on: March 05, 2015, 03:47:39 PM »

Hey guys!!!
Last week, I was on a mission to find Canadian on-line store for calligraphy materials and it was successful!!!

Delta Art Supply, based on Edmonton, Alberta: http://deltaart.ca/
They have Finetec, Dr. Ph Martin's, Pearl-ex, etc.. The prices are a bit more than PIA, but they often have good sales. All the Finetec and Dr. Martin's are currently on-sale now. When you sign-up, there will be a 2-hour lag before your account can be registered and so after 2-hours, you can place your order.

Curry's Art Supplies in Toronto: https://www.currys.com/

Rhodia Pads and other brand: https://www.quovadiscanada.com/en/our-collections

I love Paper & inks arts, but shipping can be expensive and the custom duty fees.

Introductions / Hello from Montreal!

« on: February 27, 2015, 03:46:17 PM »

Hello everyone!! I'm Nica from Montreal, Quebec!!! I was born in Manila and raised in Canada. I've always enjoyed lettering since high school (2002), but got lost along the way. I'm a lab technologist, but my heart is always with the beautiful letters. I took a calligraphy course with Melissa Esplin last October 2014 and have been obsessed ever since. I'm so happy to join the flourish forum to learn more and make friends with other people from around the world that shares the same passion. Merci Beaucoup!
