Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of September.
September fills the card in a fat hand-drawn print: rounded strokes, small round counters, a tall ascender on the t, a tail on the S that curls under the word and a bounce that makes the letters sit at slightly different heights. The letters are unjoined and generous, so the word reads as a friendly written sign rather than as lettering. Around it, soft olive-green organic blobs run off the left and top edges, a drawn heart sits above the word, a leafy sprig and a daisy fill the corners and a scatter of dots balances the top right. The captions are set in a plain sans and in an olive pill, and one line names the character coverage. The face is a cheerful print for packaging, cards and small brands: it needs size for the bounce to read, and it works best in one ink on a warm ground.

Sign for a September market
The name and the warm palette suit an early autumn market, and a simple board printed in one ink is what a stall can actually make before opening.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 500 by 350 mm board: set the market name at 90 pt on one row, keep 24 mm of clear ground beneath before the date at 20 pt, and hold 22 mm of border on all sides.
Pre-production check
The bounce makes a long word look unsteady at large size; print one board at the final size and check the baseline before the set.
Label for a small candle maker
A warm hand sets a seasonal tone, and the extra characters in the specimen mean a scent name in another language is covered.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 55 by 45 mm label: set the scent at 13 pt on one row, keep 5 mm of clear ground beneath before the weight at 4.5 pt, and hold 4 mm from the lowest tail to the die line.
Pre-production check
The tail of the S can cross a die on a small label; print one at the real size and check both ends before the order.
Card for an autumn birthday
The palette and the drawn leaves place the card in a season, and the cheerful hand fits a birthday rather than a formal occasion.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 105 by 148 mm card: set the greeting at 30 pt on one row, keep 14 mm of clear ground beneath before the message at 9 pt, and hold 12 mm of margin on all sides.
Pre-production check
Olive green on cream can look muted on a home printer; print one card on the actual machine and check the contrast before the batch.

Gloria Bright
Gloria Bright is a rounded upright hand in which the capitals stand tall, the A arches softly at its apex, the i keeps a dot at capital height and the strokes stay even but slightly uneven, so a line reads as hand-lettered capitals.
