Watercolour and Calligraphy Place Cards

[@deannadent8111]

Loved the folk art look. Was so whimsical and quaint. Thank you

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Glad you enjoyed it!

What fun! I always love behind-the-scenes glimpses of how people do their daily work, and enjoyed seeing the tools you use. If you're not in the market for place cards at the moment, these would also make lovely bookmarks.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Yes very good point Kim! Funnily enough that's my next tutorial!

[@mbtvalli]

Thank you for all the links to your resources. I truly treasure the bookmark you painted that came with my autographed book. So fun to see you perform your calligraphy magic on camera❤️

[@deWintonPaperCo]

So glad it’s helpful!

This is an illuminating tutorial! Thank you Harriet. You answered many questions for me - how to apply eyelets, how to make the place cards (or bookmarks, I'm thinking), the tools you use to get a rough edge and especially information about the different kind of papers.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

You’re so welcome!

Thank you Harriet, I have just managed to buy a little Khadi paper book which I aim to do paintings from your tutorials in for a treat to myself. I loved this tutorial and will certainly be having a go. I loved the bookmark that I brought with your book. So pretty in my book. Thank you.

Have fun!It's a lovely addictive craft project!

Thanks!

Thank you for this! I had to cancel my wedding that was supposed to be in July and we are now looking to do something smaller. It’s nice to be able to do these kinds of personal touches now that are numbers will be more manageable, and it’s something to get excited about!

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Ah Alissia I'm so sorry you had to cancel. This idea of decorated place cards came about from that very situation, I was happy to have the time to paint 15 of these, doing 150 might have been a different matter. I hope you manage to find a way to celebrate soon

[@suecook5416]

Thank you for this lovely tutorial. The Khadi paper looks really nice. I have always struggled to get a decent deckled edge on 140lb watercolour paper.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

It needs to be a bit thicker to get a good torn edge. Thanks for watching!

[@nobodynothing2594]

Lovely! As always!❤️❤️❤️ Can you also share some channels of calligraphers you mentioned?

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Hi, I've shared them in the episode notes.

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jaynekilbride5620]

Mayb if you dampen the paper before pulling it along the jagged decal edged ruler, it might tear better?

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Good idea!

[@nicicorps9683]

Hi, could you tell me the name of the calligraphy style u have used? Thanx x

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Hi, it’s just my own style of modern calligraphy

[@magnificatTOTUSTUUS]
