That&#8217;s because nowadays we have lots of <a href=\"https:\/\/creativemarket.com\/search\/hand\/lettered\">hand-lettered fonts<\/a> out there to choose from, so why would we take the time to learn the art ourselves?&nbsp;Well, easy: to make our own lettering designs, right? And the best way to learn how to do it is to watch a letterer&#8217;s process and soak up his techniques. That&#8217;s learning from the masters right there.<br>\nWith that in mind, we&#8217;ve assembled 10 amazing letterers and their respective videos right here for you to enjoy.

Here&#8217;s the process. . 1. I use @cansonpaper XL watercolor paper (I cut them into 1\/2 or 1\/4 sheets) 2. I used tombow dual brush markers in 346, 565, and 636 to color onto a clear sheet of plastic. You can get this from an office supply store for about $0.70 OR use a ziploc bag. 3. I use a watercolor brush to wet the paper and then I smoosh the plastic on top. 4. Spread the color around until you&#8217;re happy. 5. Lift the plastic and dab excess color with a paper towel. 6. Wait for it to completely dry. 7. I lettered with a pentel color brush in black. . I hope this helps!!! ????<\/a><br>\nA video posted by Leslie (@leslie.writes.it.all) on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2016-08-04T03:33:12+00:00\">Aug 3, 2016 at 8:33pm PDT<\/time>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\" async=\"\" defer=\"defer\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 658px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-version=\"7\">\n<div style=\"padding: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background: #F8F8F8; line-height: 0; margin-top: 40px; padding: 50.0% 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin: 8px 0 0 0; padding: 0 4px;\"><a style=\"color: #000; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BIeNPLZgHCR\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">I think I&#8217;m coming down with a cold so it&#8217;s night night time.

Holding the pen at the proper angle will not only assist in smooth lines and ability to control the pressure of your strokes and letter forms, but will ensure a longer life for your beloved brush pens.

It&#8217;s exciting to see embossing make a comeback as letterers have taken it to another level, but we can&#8217;t forget our paper crafters and scrapbookers that are the OGs of #embossing! ???? In this video, I&#8217;ve showcased the different products and steps I use for embossing ???????? \u2022 Ranger Embossing Brush Pen \u2022 Stampedous Embossing Powder \u2022 Darice Heat Tool \u2022 @Moleskin_world Cahier Journal 1. Write on paper or surface with embossing marker (it&#8217;s like a glue, but slides on like ink) 2. Drop embossing powder over written area, shift the powder around to make sure it covers all of the text, and then tap off the powder onto a paper or container where you can reuse the excess. 3. Using your heat tool, point it at your text a couple inches away, and watch the powder melt. Then move on to the next section. 4. Enjoy the magic and set your newly lettered piece aside to rest &#8211; even though it&#8217;s already dry, I like to do that just in case ????
