here's a half-done roughroughrouuuuuuuuugggghh-draft for my map. i still need to work on figuring out what to draw first to avoid words and pictures running into each other but i'm enjoying working on it so far! :o)
anyone else making maps/direction cards?
UPDATE: a few of you asked how i've been working on the map -- it's all freehand so it's very basic -- just a quill pen and paper. i did have to try out several different types of quill pens. the first set i used was pretty tough to work with but once i found the right quill, things became much easier! it's almost as easy as using a ballpoint pen! it moves very easily ... unfortunately, i threw out the packaging so i can't tell you what brand it is but i've spent less than $20 so far for the supplies. and i've found practice definitely helps! happy mapping!























these are fantastic! did you do this all by free hand? I am totally envious right now! you've just inspired me!
ReplyDeleteI love it!
ReplyDeleteI love it! And have the same question as excited bride - are you drawing those free hand??
ReplyDeleteMy question too! How did you do it? They look great.
ReplyDeleteW0W! I have to say that calligraphy is NOT my strongpoint.. thus I am so very very impressed. You may have found yourself a little side venture- I know tons of brides that would pay oodles for a budget-friendly 'couture map'.
