But what do you do if you have terrible handwriting? Your heartfelt declarations may be hard to decipher if your handwriting looks like chicken scratches.
In this case I wanted to put a little note in my daughters’ lunch boxes, and I wanted them to be as girly and ‘fancy’ as possible, but I don’t have ANY calligraphy skills.. Well, have no fear! I have a super simple solution. There is a way to have write with an actual BIC Mark-It® marker and still end with beautiful script text, even if you don’t have the skills! It is possible!
I knew my die-cutting could cut out beautiful scripts, so why couldn’t it draw them for me? I would just replace the blade with my BIC Mark-It® marker.
To accomplish this, I took an old dull blade and removed the metal knife. Then I popped out the ratcheted blade housing using a drill bit. I was left with the empty blade case which was basically a plastic tube.
Unlike a printed note, I love how using the BIC Mark-It® pens in the die cutter gives you the hand written look (if ONLY my handwriting was this cute!)
In this season of #BICMerryMarking I am challenging my mom, dad and father-in-law to write a note to their grandchildren and tell them what they mean to them. What would you say to your grandchildren if you knew they would remember those words forever? A beautiful heart-felt note can become a sentimental momento when it comes from someone you love, and I would love my children to have that gift.
And now your family can participate in my challenge as well. You can get the booklet of merry marking and a coupon to start marking your own letters at home. You won’t regret telling someone how much they mean to you! Make sure you share your ideas using the #BICMerryMaking hashtag so we can all see them!
