I'm wild about this new vermillion sumi ink I found at my favorite art store the other day....it is the cheeriest color, especially for cupcake party invitations, don't you think?

    Betsy, I just saw your comment on my blog (thank you) and find it coincidentally "non-coincidental" to have encountered you twice in two weeks. Your calligraphy work is B-R-E-A-T-H-T-A-K-I-N-G. And I love your blogs... My only regret is that I sent out my wedding invitations years ago!

  11. Do you mind me asking what your favorite nibs and inks are and where you buy them? Also, I see you use a straight pen holder. Do you ever use an oblique holder? (I took a class a while back and am hoping to get back into it.)

    I love your work!
