"I purchased this book and just received it the other day. WoW! This book is awesome! I wouldn't say that it has a lot on hand lettering although there is a section called "Alphabets" and some hand lettering examples throughout the book. But the awesome thing this book has is tons of decorative elements and I love it. Exactly what I have been looking for. I have not seen a book with so many decorative elements and she groups them into categories so they are easy to find. So many ideas floating in my head from just thumbing through this book quickly. I can't wait until I have time to really look through it. This book will get a lot of use and will have it's place in my bookcase. In my opinion, great book!"

- I purchased this book and just received it the other day. WoW! This book is awesome! I wouldn't say that it has a lot on hand lettering although there is a section called "Alphabets" and some hand lettering examples throughout the book. But the awesome thing this book has is tons of decorative elements and I love it. Exactly what I have been looking for. I have not seen a book with so many decorative elements and she groups them into categories so they are easy to find. So many ideas floating in my head from just thumbing through this book quickly. I can't wait until I have time to really look through it. This book will get a lot of use and will have it's place in my bookcase. In my opinion, great book!
- Only thing that could make this book better would be to have a spiral binding so the pages could be opened up for easier use. Overall though, great designs!!!!!
- Flourishes are an easy way to make any hand-lettering or paper craft project stand out. Artist Annika Sauerborn offers here a wonderful book of ideas, serving as both guide and jumping off point for your own ideas. She shows options for making frames, ribbons, leaf embellishments, and so much more, for all skill levels, from the very beginner (and I count myself in that category) to the more advanced. I read the ebook version, but I look forward to purchasing the physical book to add to my collection!
