10 Different styles of lettering
There are many styles of lettering to explore, lets start today with these 10 easy ideas that I use the most. All you need is a pen and paper or journal. Any paper or pen will work!
1. Shadow Lettering: Doodle or outline your letters and add a 3D effect to it by adding an outline shadow. Color in the shadow with thin lines.
Monoline Script Style: Letter your words with a simple cursive style, but add a swoosh or style element to jazz it up.
Faux Calligraphy: Letter your words with a cursive style- but go back in and add a second line to all the downstrokes to create a calligraphy like look. I have an entire blog post dedicate to Faux Calligraphy too!
Simple Cursive: Use your basic cursive style to letter your words. Arrange your words close, or stack them one upon another. Add small doodles around the words.
Negative Space Lettering: Use all upper case block letters. Outline them or fill them in with color. Draw a large heart around your words and fill in the heart with color to create a negative block lettering look.
Funky Lettering: This is the most fun style ever! Mix and match all the font styles to create something uniquely you.
Fat Filler Style: In this style, you are basically adding a ‘fat’ area to each letter and then decorating that area with some design. I used hearts here- but think stripes, dots, ombre color for unique looks. My favorite Fat Filler Style is this Flower Lettering.
Monoline Lettering: The clean and simple all caps look that is timeless and graceful.
Tall and Skinny Outline: Make your letters tall and skinny to change up the way your words look. This is a great trick for when you need to fit a lot of words into a small area on the page.
Connected Script: This is basically a cursive or script look but you connect all the words to create a different look.
