Calligraphy is stylish and admirable ♡

Brides, have you heard of the recently popular "calligraphy"?

Calligraphy is the art of writing the English alphabet in beautiful, flowing strokes.

It is like "shodo" (Japanese calligraphy) in Japan.

Originating in ancient Europe, it is a standard font for welcome boards and paper items at overseas weddings.

I wish I could write it myself...!

Recently, "modern calligraphy," an evolved artistic version of Western calligraphy, is explosively popular even in Japanese weddings ♡

Incorporating it into wedding items will give a stylish, overseas feel, and elevate your design instantly. *

But...!

"I want to try modern calligraphy, but it seems difficult."

"I can't even write cursive well, so I definitely can't do modern calligraphy."

Many people feel this way, and I totally understand that sentiment.

But...!

There is a magical pen that allows even beginners to write beautifully with modern calligraphy!

The ultimate weapon: Pentel's brush pen!

This magical pen is the "Fude Touch Sign Pen," sold by the well-known stationery maker Pentel. *
