Iron Craft Challenge 11



As mentioned yesterday, we were asked to combine text or typography into our Iron Craft Challenges. I decided to do a paper cut for this challenge and I had so many alphabets to choose from.

After looking in several of my reference books, I chose the letter R from an early 19th century French alphabet that I found in the book, Fancy Alphabets by the Pepin Press.

There were so many options from which to choose but this really stood out for me because of the overly Romantic nature of the alphabet. I cut out the letter first and then cut a background. I have always enjoyed the purple and black combination.

It would be cool to see a halloween banner like the Christmas one i did with this font.
