    I am not such a tagger, but I would love to see your hand writing.
     
    Here are two Christmas cards I made a few years ago that both started out as doodles.

  • You have such nice handwriting...and Leah will like that...picture...

  • Man, that picture is legit!  Very nice.  :0)

  • Thats awesome. Nice writing. that pic is awesome too.

  • Your handwriting is so much nicer than mine. I gave up on cursive in high school; maybe I should take it back up.

  • i love the picture : )

    you have such neat handwriting. no wonder you love to write.

  • oooh nice print. 

  • Wow, such pretty handwriting! :jealous:

  • My handwriting has gotten messier as I get older. Even when I start out nice and neat, I end up sloppy.  You're so talented; like Leonardo DaVinci. I did a post yesterday with my handwriting.

  • Damn you with your fab penmanship 

  • You have beautiful handwriting...I can see why you like to write and do calligraphy.

  • This is such a cool idea.  You have gorgeous handwriting.  I went through a phase where I loved to do calligraphy as a kid, but it was basically illegible.

  • Nice to know there are other ambi-back-or-forward-up-or-right-siders out there.  (Though we still may be in the minority...)  ;)

  • lol jealous. My hand writing is awful. I'm working on it though. 

  • Oh my word Beth~ when did you discover this talent? ~and you did the Mooncat Blue drawing?

  • I am so jealous! I love your handwriting!

  • really nice, beth.  beautiful handwriting.

    j.

  • @WildWomanOfTheWest - I have always been able to write with both hands,and I figured out that I could use both at once when I was about 20. I can do hearts and circles and simple things besides handwriting.
    I doodled the pic,I love lettering and patterns...I made this card  too....

  • Wow, you went all out with this. Puts my picture of a stick figure diving for treasure to shame.

  • @seedsower - Wow~ that is so unique!  I checked out the card~ beautiful!!!!  How often do you create this kind of art?

  • @WildWomanOfTheWest - I added two more to the post. I draw sometimes,I can draw but it is a labored effort.

  • @seedsower - All those flowers~ so intricate! 

  • You have a beautiful handwriting and your calligraphy is spot ON!!  Those cards are lovely.  You have such a gift there!!

  • Hey!!  I see we have something in common!!  I went back and read the
    comments and I'm also ambidextrous and can write with both hands at
    once..well, sorta.   I think I was 11 the first time I wrote my name
    with both hands at the same time, but I have to write backwards with my
    left while writing forward with my right. More like a mirror image. 
    That's the only time I can write with my right hand is when I'm writing
    backwards with my left.  Think I may be mis-wired! LOL!  I can draw
    bilateral images with both hands, drawing one half with the left, the
    other with the right.  Now, send my right on a solo writing
    assignment.. and it ain't happenin'!  It handles the "heavy lifting"
    projects like hammering, swinging a bat, playing tennis, cutting with
    scissors, etc.  My left is dominate when eating and writing.

    OK,
    that was a big comment, but I got so excited when I saw what you had
    written about writing with both hands!  I'll stop now. LOL!!

  • Woman, you are so amazingly talented. You should be making beau-coups of money.

  • I envy you. Your art and handwriting are beautiful!

  • Lovely handwriting and drawing as well...mine is left handed chicken scratch compared to that.

  • Such beautiful handwriting and drawing!  I used to love to do things like this, but never take the time anymore.  You are so very gifted in this way!

  • lol, nobody's tagging anyone. We're just not into that apparently.

  • awesome handwriting haha!

  • Beth, you are very talented. Those are beautiful!!

    @momidazed - lol,
    I'm right handed but I can write my name with both hands and yes it
    comes out mirror imaged for me too!! :) I have at least two children
    who are left handed...

  • Such a cool idea...I'm going to try this!

    Those cards are BEAUTIFUL!

  • Your cards are gorgeous.....and so are you!

  • Good morning!  This is my photo site.  Hope you have a wonderful weekend!  ~Ray/Lobo~

  • My left had is almost completely useless in writing, thankfully not so with typing. I can (after a bit of refresh practice) write fairly decently backwards. I like to write notes to my daughter that way and put them in her lunch box. She'll run giggling to the bathroom to use the mirror to read it.

  • @craftea - That is sweet to write her backwards note...you good mama you!

  • Yours is the best I've seen yet! :O

  • I wish my handwriting was that neat. I love your cards, very creative :)

  • i wish i had handwriting that beautiful - sadly, mine looks more like chicken scratch.  i just can't write as fast as i think. lol.  this, even after my next door neighbor enrolled me in her informal handwriting class. =P

  • really cool idea, Beth!  i would send you a copy if i could. =) i know! i'll snail mail you a little note =)

    julie/youtome

    really like to write M, S, T, W, J, G, R, X, Z. double S's . i really like to write chinese and japanese characters and old german writing too.

    right handed, but can okay with both -- just not as well with left.

  • Oh how fun. I've been told I have pretty handwriting for a young person. I should do something similar. 

    xo!

  • Omg yours are so beautiful. My styles of handwriting changes everyday, as all my teachers, classmates and friends say, but they always recognise all different styles of my 'unique' handwritting in my homework. lol

  • I did a handwriting thing once too on my old xanga.  It's really cool just to see how others write.  So much of who we are is captured in our handwriting, but so often we have to hide it behind fonts.  When done thoughtfully and carefully, every handwritten message is itself a work of art.

    Thanks for this!  I love your Christmas cards, too.

  • Such pretty handwriting and the cards are absolutely beautiful! What a multi multi-talented woman you are!!!!

  • @Levanna - when you do ,tag me and...it is good to see you!

  • Your handwriting looks so nice!

  • You're writing is totally awesome!!  Backwards forwards and every which way!! You're my handwriting Hero!! lol Thanks for including me in this project.
