AJ Username Embellished Letter Art Contest!

Me: Hey guys!
You Guys: WHAT are you DOING?? It's 11:23 PM! This is barely even a Tuesday post!
Me: I knowwwwww... but I hope it'll be worth it when you see what I've been working on all day! *bounces up and down excitedly* 
You Guys: We'll see.... *crosses arms, drums fingers*
Me: It's really worth it. 😁 IT IS!

It is...

IT IS....

EMBELLISHED LETTER ART! 😄😄😄



This is a sampler, showing every letter, and all 26 different prints of letters I'm going to be offering!

(This seriously took a LOT of time. Seriously.)



Sorry for the bad quality, heehee. *scratches back of neck nervously* It's the best camera I had on hand (AKA my iPad). Zooming in clears it up a lot, though.

The idea of this is, I'll be making works that aren't just art, they'll be WORDS! Everyone knows a picture is worth a thousand words... so how special must it be if you have both? 😋

The way YOU can enter this special contest is, submit a comment down below stating your username, the print you'd like the username to be drawn in (Quill, Eyeballs!!, Kelp, etc.), and your favorite Animal Jam minigame!

A sample comment would look like this, I think:

"Hi, I'm entering the contest!
Thisismyuser,
Yarntangled,
Best Dressed!"

ONE person who has submitted a commission BEFORE 8/15/17 (that is, before my post next week) will be chosen at random to receive a username commission from yours truly. *silly bow*



I do realize this isn't very Animal Jam-related, and I regret that. The fact is, I was working so hard on getting this finished in time for you guys, I neglected to think of any backup plan or other ideas. This was an unfortunate mistake, which resulted in the odd request for you to include your favorite Animal Jam minigame for no reason whatsoever.

(Man, I'm pessimistic. I need to quit reading Lemony Snicket books. Though wow, his writing style is captivating!) [Note: Ignore the tangent, please. It's 12:13 now. 😴 Writing is slow.]

I really, reeeeeeeally hope you like this post and enter the contest! 😊 

Until next week (which will hopefully have less intricate artwork and more of an actual POST), goodbye! 😆

PEACE, LOVE, NINJAS!

      Huh.. Pill bugs has been on regular AJ for years. I used to play it back in 2012 when I first joined o.O

      By the way Kara, just want to ask something about the t-shirts you're making with your art on, including some of the blogger portraits. Please could you not use any that have me on them?(I think rn there's only one Blogger portrait with me in) I know it might sound strange, but I have particular reasons I'd rather not be on a shirt design. Sorry if this causes any issues.

      All The Wrong Questions. Is his writing style always like that? It's like he's telling a story backwards and forwards, with pseudo-flashbacks, but it's STILL two parallel storylines happening at the same time! o.O *mind explodes* The man has a kind of twisted genius -- I've never been so confused in all my life!! XDDDDD

    Sounds cool! I think there are websites that have things to turn handwriting into your own custom font... dunno if you're using that ,but it might be helpful to make your fonts, well, fonts so that you don't have to draw the same letters over and over again! Just an idea :)

      I'm not using a font website, but I'm saving my files on Adobe Draw so that I can copy them to my Clipboard and paste them again, so the same effect is reached. To be able to type with my letters sounds amazing, though! O.O
