Hand calligraphy is a wonderful art if you can do it (or know someone who can). So's typography, using and choosing the perfect font.![]()
If I was mailing something using calligraphy I'd find a type-face that compliments it and use that on the to/from address.
I would never leave off a return address at least knowingly. I'm sure I've forgotten sometimes.
Sadly at this time lots of places will not take a letter/package with no return address.
Leave your craft for the inside, perhaps a hint such as a word or decorative flourish on the outside or the back. Better to do that then risk your card, wedding invite, toddler's birthday party invite ..... get lost in the mail.
No design is amazing if it does not work; the advert with a wrong number, the colors chosen that conflict horridly, the poster specs delivered to the printer the night of the deadline and their building burns down (been there, done it all, especially the printer building that burned down).
Sorry about all the hard work you did and it did not go through the mail or not delivered yet. I'm sure that's discouraging.It may turn up yet and I'm sure the recipients will be pleased.
