Kind Critique / Re: Ten Tips to Self-Critique and Improve your Calligraphy

« on: March 27, 2017, 07:26:46 PM »

This hit the right marks for me today. I was just sitting at home yesterday working on a piece and wondering how I would tell if it was good or not. I love feedback and always appreciate it when I get it, so working alone can be hard sometimes. This list is a great way of stepping back from your work and really looking at it with a critical eye if you don't happen to have someone around to help you.

Thank you for sharing, Erica!

I've been in a food funk lately, so I'm looking forward to trying out some new recipes.

This is going to be my first Advanced exchange! Can't wait. 

I'm not sure if this falls under diary, but this website is great for historical letters. Might be useful for this exchange.

The 2015 winter exchange was my second exchange and I am now hooked! I've received such beautiful work from so such amazing calligraphers in this exchange and can't wait to do the next one! I wanted to share with you my Winter Exchange envelopes and the card I made inside

Exchanges - General Info & Questions (Start here.) / Re: OMG - I signed up for an exchange ... now what?!

« on: September 28, 2015, 05:05:33 PM »

I was wondering about a technical issue...
What is the general procedure for sending out these letters?

1. Do you put it in another plain envelope so it doesn't get damaged and just put a stamp on it?
2. Have you experience any issues with sending dark envelopes? My bling submissions are all on black envelopes and I just realized there might be issues when I send it...

Hope you can help.

Thanks,
Thary
