Halloween-DOD 2016 Letter Exchange Results

[AnasaziWrites]

This beauty from Handmadeletters (Janice). Cool work of art. Thanks. (I'm posting the lovely letter that was enclosed with the card as well.)

This completes list 13--all received and posted. I very much enjoyed them all and hope that at least someone from each of the other 12 lists will post what they received. It's fun to see the range and breadth of talent that is on this forum.

[Natalie419]

I have received the same cards that you have received, Christen. 🎃

[Calligal]

The first two are from Terri Holloway. I love the fun envelope, and wow, 3 pages of gorgeous orange script on cool black paper! Where are you guys finding that ink and paper?? Thank you Terri. The next two are from Janice. Beautiful writing and artwork, thank you! Next all the way from the UK comes Saron Richards. Love the Halloween artwork and script on the envelope. Very cool eyes and script on the inner black card! Lastly in this post, from Michael Moore, a fabulous spider web envelope with white script. Even bug stamps! Then the perfect Spencerian script inside. Thank you. 

[Terasleen]

I am just in awe of all of these creative, fun & brilliant envelopes & cards! From the scripts to the stamps....amazing! Well done everyone!

Here is my Halloween Spell...

Double double toil and trouble
Fire burn and inkwell bubble
This is your calligraphy spell
Dip your nib into the ink well

Let hand release to be set free
As open eyes begin to see
Put pen to paper creating art
Give these words voice as you start

"Beautiful letters come and appear
Absent splatters blobs and smears
Perfect slant these letters show
Ink on nib forever flow

All paper used will be just right
With all ink colors including white
Show to me the flourish I choose
All nibs fit any holder I use

Fingers hands arms never ache
Nibs never age dull or break
Perfect will my hand always write
As spell is offered on this night"

From your Flourish Forum Friend
Terasleen
Trick or Treat and
Happy Halloween
