Tall hand-drawn capitals with rough edges and thin raised crossbars
Heart is a tall hand-drawn capital alphabet in which the strokes are narrow and rough-edged, the crossbars sit high and thin, and every letter leans a little, so a word reads as something brushed on a wall.

Sturdy stroke walls and open counters weed cleanly on adhesive vinyl, HTV apparel film, and cut cardstock.
Visual anatomy & craft review
The H sets two wobbling stems with a thin high bar, the E stacks three short arms, the A carries a slim crossbar high on the apex, the R turns a blunt leg and the T spreads a narrow top, all at a light display weight with dry, slightly broken contours. The thin crossbars are the character: they sit above the optical middle and make the letters look taller than they measure. Because the strokes are narrow, the face needs 30 pt before the roughness reads as drawing rather than as a bad print, and it prints happily in one flat colour. The pale pink ground, the letter-spaced line above and the caption below are presentation; the large word in the middle is the face.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Heart Font’s stroke geometry.
The rough tall capitals look brushed rather than typed, and the thin bars hold on a matte card at 34 pt where a fussy script would blur.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A6 card: set one word at 34 pt in the upper half, set a short line in a 9 pt sans under it, and keep 15 mm of clear card so the broken edges of the strokes are not crowded.
Pre-production check
Dry edges print as grey on an uncoated card; check one sheet and specify a smooth stock if the roughness turns muddy.
The tall narrow letters let a long greeting fit a narrow banner, and the rough edges survive a home inkjet printer at 48 mm on matte paper.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 1000 by 200 mm banner across two A4 sheets: set the word at 48 mm, allow a 12 mm overlap between sheets, and line the crossbars up across the join before taping.
Pre-production check
A join through a thin crossbar shows as a step; check the taped banner and shift the split to fall between two letters instead.
The hand-drawn capitals suit a workshop notice, and the open counters keep a two-word sign readable at 40 mm through a doorway.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A4 sign: set the two words at 40 mm stacked, set the room number in a 14 pt sans beneath, and keep a 15 mm margin so the sign sits inside a standard door plate.
Pre-production check
An A4 sheet behind a door plate crops at the frame lip; check the plate and keep every stroke inside 90 percent of the paper.
