In more than 60 lessons learn the art of hand-drawn chalk lettering from an Etsy superstar. Then show off your newfound skills and create your own unique look. Master your ABCs, from basic letterforms-serif, sans serif, and script--to fun lettering styles like Bubble, Spooky, and Vintage Circus. Discover how to play with chalk dust to add shadows and dimension; how to illustrate borders, banners, frames; and how to embelish with flourishes, laurels, hearts, and arrows. From basic tools and tips (how to sharpen a stick of chalk, how to prep a blackboard) to a dozen inspiring projects, it's a complete guide to the playful art of chalk lettering.
