Recently, while looking through the archive of Calligraphy Inspiration posts, I realized I had completely overlooked someone whose work I was quite familiar with from Sugar Paper and right here on OSBP. I’m talking about the work of Michigan based illustrator, designer, and calligrapher Molly Jacques. Her portfolio is filled with rich colours and charming hand lettering. Her calligraphy styles have always stood out to me for their simple yet emotive qualities. Take a look at some of these stunning examples and I think you’ll agree! – Julie

A great DIY holiday card project from Molly’s blog (above). Definitely worth a try for the upcoming holiday season!

Molly’s portfolio and blog showcase some really eye-catching work. Such vibrant and opaque hits of colour! That’s really all you need with calligraphy as beautiful as Molly’s.

Not only does she do custom work, Molly also has a wonderful online shop filled with calligraphy stamps for you do-it-yourselfers, as well as gorgeous lettered artwork. Be sure to check it out!
