I used to...That's a lovely page and story Sian.<br />I used to print journalling for pages but have learnt that even though I would like my handwriting to be more distinguished, it is mine and that makes it unique. My dad & nan were not 'writers' but I do have a handwritten recipe of my nan's and a list of craft materials written by my dad. They are special keepsakes because there is connection on the paper, and that makes me appreciate handwriting, whether beautiful or not. It is also a trademark, because as soon as you see handwriting you can recognise the person. I have just bought a book from a charity shop as it happens, because I want to experiment and be playful with my handwriting.<br />By the way, I love the letterbox and telephone dial. They were the days..........Sandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12558786621283350776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-55363867486062191762011-11-10T11:30:52.711+00:002011-11-10T11:30:52.711+00:00Thanks everyone.
