Creating lettering for greeting cards, stationery, apparel, etc, has been a total game changer for today's hosts, @ilanagriffo and @katiemadethat. Yet somehow, art licensing remains a "secret" industry that many letterers don't even know exists. After being brought together through the power of Instagram and bonding over a mutual interest in lettering and licensing, Katie and Ilana have decided to team up to shine a light on this under-represented topic through their new e-course, Art Licensing for Letterers. In honor of all the wonderful relationships started on the internet, and in keeping with our licensing design theme, today’s challenge is to create a hand-lettered greeting card for an Instagram friend! Show a bud you care, or create something that will make them laugh! It’s totally up to you what you want to express. Think of it like having a modern day pen pal! Feeling stuck? Here are some headline ideas to get you going: • I wish we were in the same place • I love internetting with you • Sending you all the likes • Thanks for sliding into my DMs Katie and Ilana will be picking one participant to win a scholarship to their online class, Art Licensing for Letterers. The course walks you through everything from fees and contracts, crafting a portfolio, and even working with agents. (Already signed up? You can still enter!) Tag your entry @goodtype, @ilanagriffo, @katiemadethat and hashtag it #GoodtypeArtLicensing and don't forget to have fun! The Winner will be announced Friday, June 14th via @Goodtype Stories. You have until Thursday, June 13th at 11:59 PM (or 23:59) to post your entry . . . . #strengthinletters #goodtype #typespire #typegang #thedailytype #artoftype #calligritype #typetopia #handmadefont #TYxCA #typematters #50words #letteringco #thedesigntip #typeeverything #ipadlettering #typographyinspired #digitalart #typism #typewip #typeworldwide #createinspirepositivity #letteringdaily #typeyeah #dailylettering #lettering #calligraphy https://www.instagram.com/p/ByixqNYJJQQ/?igshid=1g96jb05p6ra
