5 WAYS TO LETTER APRIL FREE PRACTICE WORKSHEET

A great way to learn calligraphy is by practicing writing new words. I want to help you do just that! that’s why I decided to create FREE calligraphy practice sheets where I show you five ways you can letter different words.

Last month, I started with the “5 ways to letter March”, and I thought it will be fun to continue practicing the months. So expect new monthly worksheets for the months to come. These practice worksheets will help you learn to letter and improve your calligraphy.

I started this series of free worksheets after I went back to the bullet journal system and I was excited to see all the ways that I can apply my calligraphy and lettering skills.

The great thing is that even if you don’t have a bullet journal, youโ€™ll still be able to apply the calligraphy skills you learn.

There are so many different ways you can use your calligraphy skills like for making cards, signs, journaling, or simply note-taking.

WHY LETTER APRIL IN 5 DIFFERENT WAYS?

Writing the same word in different styles will not only help you practice but also find your unique calligraphy style. Each time you letter a word a different way, you can pick the letter form you like best and keep using it. Developing your calligraphy style is so important to make sure your lettering doesn’t look like anyone else. Sure, there are going to be some similarities, but you want your style to be unique.ย 

These are the 5 different styles weโ€™ll be reviewing with each practice worksheet.

  1. Faux Calligraphy
  2. Basic Morden Calligraphy Style
  3. Bounce Calligraphy style
  4. Flourished Calligraphy
  5. Block lettering Style.

HOW TO USE THE FREE PRACTICE WORKSHEETS?

  • Fill out the form at the bottom of this post or go to myย free resource library if you already have the password to get in. Once youโ€™re there, select the practice sheet youโ€™d like to download. For this tutorial select the:ย 5 Ways to Letter April.
  • The worksheet will be an instant download, and you can print it at home or a local printer store or library. I use thisย inexpensive laser printer. (This printer is black and white. But thatโ€™s all you need at the moment to print the practice sheets). If you prefer a color printer, this isย another inexpensive optionย 
  • If you prefer a color printer, this is another inexpensive option.ย I recently shared about my great experience with HP Instant ink, which can help you print this worksheet FREE!ย You can use this linkย to start. For more details, checkย this blog postย where I tell you everything about this program.ย 
  • Set your printer scaling to โ€œFit Page.โ€
  • Once you’ve printed your worksheet, you’re ready to get your practice going!
  • IMPORTANT: Slow down! As you are practicing, make sure to take your time. Doing calligraphy is not meant to be fast.
  • REMEMBER: use light pressure for the upstrokes (when you’re moving the pen upwards) and heavy pressure for the downstrokes (when you’re moving the pen upwards). Find a comfortable position and take breaks if you need to. Lift your pen between each stroke as you’re practicing the letterforms. You can also adjust your page anytime to get a better angle.
