Belluccia Calligraphy Font used in Black and White Wedding

I love the crisp look of black and white!  And I was thrilled to see my Belluccia calligraphy font was chosen to add to this couple’s classic look on Snippet & Ink’s blog.

It’s used on the Rehearsal dinner invite ( love the gray stripes in the background), Wedding invitation, RSVP and return envelope, as well as the program and favor bags seen in the last pic below.

The gray programs pop with the couples white initials and ribbon.

How darling are these monogrammed totes for the guests favors. I wonder what’s inside???

Beautiful Calligraphy Fonts by Stephen Rapp

I’m excited to share this newly released calligraphy font, Slapjack, created by the fabulously talented Stephen Rapp.  I’m a HUGE fan of his work!

Slapstick has a very versatile look.  It would look beautiful on an invitation for a wedding or other event.

Or be a perfect fit for a logo or retail packaging. I could definitely see this on a wine label.

I am in love with that “h” !! And he did an incredible job with the all caps look.  Clear and readable yet stylish.

Here’s a little more about this versatile font.

Slapjack is a unique rendition of a broad-edged calligraphic script ideal for packaging, signage, and titling.  With a glyph count well over 700, Slapjack is a fully-featured pro font.  Using Adobe InDesign which supports Stylistic Sets allows you to instantly convert your text to a version without baseline connectors for a more streamlined look. These can also be selected via the glyph palette.

It’s so cool how you can choose to have a connected or non-connected look. It really changes the feel.

I had the pleasure of meeting Stephen in person and found him to be extremely humble for such a talented lettering artist as well as a truly kind hearted and gentle man.

I think his work beautifully represents those qualities.

Here’s a few samples of some of his other gorgeous fonts.

Hiatus is 30% off for a limited time!

This graphic shows off the gorgeous flourishes in Hiatus.

This historic look of Memoir has the look of  beautiful handwriting.

These Memoir ligatures are perfect for envelope addressing.

Montague Script is another font that has a lot of versatility.

New Cuisine is one of my personal favorites and is 33% off for a limited time!  Love the modern yet slightly retro look.

There are too many fab fonts to show here so be sure to check out his full collection on myfonts.com.

Here’s a little bit about Stephen:

Lettering and typography are his passion. He’s studied and practiced lettering and type design for over 2 decades. He was a recipient of the Hermann Zapf Scholarship Award in 1997 and has been a lettering artist and type developer for American Greetings since 2000.

Some of his accolades include:

Published in Letter Arts Review, Scripsit, Bound and Lettered, the recently released “Modern Mark Making” by Quarry books, and Typography 30 by The Type Directors Club.

He has taught classes and workshops on both calligraphy and lettering and has been a faculty member at the International Lettering Arts Conference and Typecon.

In addition to his work with American Greetings, Stephen designs commercially available fonts for P22, Veer, and MyFonts.

I’m delighted to know such a great designer and human being.

Enjoy this Marvelous Monday!

Calligraphy Addressing on Envelopes

I was thrilled to once again do calligraphy addressing of these envelopes for my clients darling photo Christmas cards.

The photography and card design are by the very talented Angela Weedon of  Angela Weedon Photography.

The lettering is my “whimsy” style.  It has a simple modern feel.  It will be made into a font eventually:)

I love lettering in white on a color.  It just looks so fresh!

By the way, did you know that you can use my calligraphy fonts to address your own envelopes?  That’s one of the reasons I created them.

To give people who love calligraphy, the ability to use it for their own projects.

I’m still getting back into “work mode” after having a lovely holiday with both of my sons at home and lots of fun visits from friends and family.

One big announcement for the new year…I’m finally opening an Etsy Shop!  I will start selling my fonts there.  We’ll see what else evolves.

I have plans to release at least 2 more fonts this year.  Of course you’ll hear all about it as they progress.

In the meantime, here’s the links to my first two calligraphy fonts.  I’m thrilled that they are both still on the Best Seller’s list!

An intimate New York City Wedding on Style Me Pretty

Happy 2013 to everyone!

I was thrilled to see my client’s wedding featured recently on Style me pretty’s blog.

My part in this lovely event was addressing the envelopes and hand lettering the place cards in my Belluccia script.

Just a small part.  But such a pleasure to contribute in any way to this cozy, intimate New York City wedding.

I love the New York themed programs!

What fun to have guests holding large white balloons walking through the streets of New York!

“Joy, Hope and Happiness..a perfect wedding banner theme.

Turquoise blue glass vases with simple flowers added a sweet touch to the tables.

A decadent five course meal on the rooftop of the Gramercy Park Hotel provided a unique and memorable dinner party that reflected their love for food and wine with 50 of their closest family and friends.

What a great rooftop view!

Homemade Honey Liqueur in beautiful bottles served as favors.

So many wonderful details made this wedding everything they wanted it to be.

These beautiful  photographs are by 4Eyes Photography.

Check out more of this lovely wedding here.

Congrats again Jackie and D.D.!

Dom Loves Mary Calligraphy Font makes Rising Stars list

I am over the moon and beyond thrilled that my second calligraphy font, Dom Loves Mary, has made the December  2012 “Rising Stars” list!

This is a huge honor brought on by all of you who were kind enough to purchase it.  So thank you from the bottom of my heart.

If you recall, the font was inspired by the true life love story of my in-laws Dom and Mary Sementelli.

I know they would be absolutely delighted by your lovely response.  So, I will thank you from them as well.

Here is the information about it’s use as a web font.  It is available for purchase at myfonts.com.

I’ve been taking time off from posting to finish up projects for clients and get ready for the holidays.  One son is home and the other will be home Saturday!

Various guests will be arriving at different times in the holiday.

The live tree is up, although not yet decorated, and some of the gifts have been purchased, though not yet wrapped.

Pizzelles (Italian cookies) have yet to be made ( my hubbies job:) and out of town packages need mailing.

So I’ve got lots to do!

But before I get on with all of that, I want to take the time to thank you for being a subscriber to this blog.

There are tons of great blogs out there.  And I am still learning how to do this:) So thanks for sticking with me !  I hope I’m sharing things that are helpful or inspirational to you.

I wish you a warm and wonderful holiday!

Feel free to download the “Warmest wishes for the Holidays” graphic  above and use it for whatever you’d like.

It’s made with the Dom Loves Mary font and flourishes.

With gratitude,

Debi

Simple Country Chic Wedding invitation

I love how my cursive font, Belluccia, was used in this simple country chic wedding invitation.

The small hand tag attached to the couple’s photo greets guest with the sweetest saying, “all the best things are wild and free.”

The use of Belluccia in lower case and the white, yellow and kraft papers keep the look modern and country chic.

And don’t we just love the little feather and the twine!

I just adore the boots and old fashion camera illustrations. The boot illustration is from Shannon Parish.

The camera is from iStock.com.

This fab invitation suite was designed by Tara Tallman Sollman (at Firebrand Tribe). Photographs by Jessica Ames.

Thanks Tara! You do Belluccia proud!

Have a Massive Monday!

Table Numbers and Place Cards in Calligraphy fonts

I was creating some samples for a potential client and thought I’d share these Table Numbers and Place Cards in my calligraphy fonts.

In the pic above I used my cursive font, Dom Loves Mary Stylistic version.  The flourish on the capital T was created using a flourish from the Dom Loves Mary Flourishes Two set.

I used Dom Loves Mary text font for  “TABLE 12″ on the place card.

And in this pic, I’ve used my Belluccia font and Borders.

Here’s an example using Hand lettering.  Using a Calligraphy font gives you the beautiful look of hand lettering at a fraction of the cost.

That’s why I created them!

With either Belluccia or Dom Loves Mary, you can easily design all of your event signage and print off your own computer.

Have a Wicked Weekend!
