Chunky hand-drawn Christmas capitals with one letter dropping below the line
Jellybean Christmas
Jellybean Christmas is a heavy hand-drawn capital alphabet in which the strokes stay fat and slightly uneven, the corners soften and one letter in each line is allowed to fall out of the baseline, so a greeting reads as cut paper.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Jellybean Christmas.
The J hooks a long tail below the baseline, the E holds three short arms at uneven lengths, the L turns a blunt corner, the Y splays two thick diagonals and the S keeps a shallow spine, all at a poster weight with rounded, slightly wobbly contours. What makes the set feel handmade is the tiny variation in stroke width and the way the letters sit nearly, but not exactly, on one line. Two colours are used in the sample only to separate the words, not as a built-in style. Because the shapes are solid, the face cuts cleanly and holds at 40 mm; below 14 pt the wobble turns into noise at the edges. The white ground, the small stars and the credit lines are presentation; the two display words are the face.

Sign for a market stall
The heavy hand-cut shapes read across a crowded hall, and the uneven baseline gives a plain board the look of a painted sign at 90 mm.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A2 board: set the greeting at 90 mm, stack two words with 20 mm between them, keep a 12 mm border all round, and cut the printed panel to the letter shapes only behind the second word.
Pre-production check
A wobbling contour cut by hand loses the drawn edge; check the panel and cut outside the printed line by 2 mm rather than on it.
Gift tag for a small batch of boxes
The fat strokes stay solid at 16 pt on a kraft gift tag, and one dropped letter gives a short greeting a handmade tilt that a clean sans cannot imitate.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 50 by 90 mm tag: set the greeting at 16 pt in two lines, punch a 4 mm hole 12 mm from the top, and keep the dropped letter of the first line clear of the punched hole.
Pre-production check
Two lines of a heavy face on a narrow tag can touch at the stem of the h; check the printed tag and reduce to six letters per line.
Cut file for a window garland
The solid fat shapes bridge well in paper, and the rounded corners keep the garland from tearing when it is hung at 60 mm.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Cut an A3 garland: set each word at 60 mm, join the letters with 3 mm bridges at the base line, and keep every internal gap at 4 mm so the die does not tear the card.
Pre-production check
A gap under 3 mm pulls the paper apart on a home cutter; check the vector at full size and widen the counters rather than the letters.
