The Happy Ever Crafter

Hi, I'm Becca Courtice, a modern calligrapher and instructor from Ottawa, Ontario — I'm here to teach you everything I know! 👋

Heyyy Reader!!

Happy Friday! And Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to those who celebrate!

I'm taking a break for the holiday but wanted to make sure I sent my weekly update before heading out.

Enjoy!

And as always, hit reply if you have any questions, k?

Oil Pastels Attempt!


It's been a looooong time since I tried using oil pastels.

I'm not sure I've used them much at all as an adult.

But I'm committed to experimenting and trying different art supplies, so I jumped right in for this week's video!

Pumpkin Place Cards! 🎃


Canadian Thanksgiving is this weekend, and I remembered this tutorial!

These cute little pumpkins are some of my favourite place cards I've ever made.

They're perfect for Thanksgiving, fall gatherings, and even gift "tags" - the possibilities are pretty endless with these.

❄️Workshop Holi-Day 2025 ❄️


In case you haven't heard, Workshop Holi-Day is coming back next month (November 15th!). 🤩

The workshop videos are all in, and seriously - they are SO GOOD!

Make sure you're on the waitlist, so you don't miss anything!

What I’m Playing with This Week...


I've had embroidery on my crafty bucket list for Y E A R S. And I'm finally doing it!

This week I'm working my way through Why Knot Stitches' course that teaches 30 (!!!) of the basic embroidery stitches.

I'm resisting the (very strong) urge to just skip ahead and start making stuff... I wanna get the basics down pat! (I know how important the basics are.... wink wink drills students wink wink)

And by the way, the link to her course also auto-applies a 15% discount. It's not an affiliate link or anything... I just asked her if she'd give me a code if anyone else wanted it. 🥰

Ask Me Anything!


Have a question you want answered? Click the link below to submit your question! I'll answer one each week right here in my weekly newsletter.

Honestly, I just start really early! That, AND once I have the holiday spirit in full swing, I just tend to hyper fixate and do nothing else hahaha! I may not be the right person to ask!

This is also why Workshop Holi-Day is in mid-November instead of December. I want you to have plenty of time to complete these projects before the holiday season is in full swing!

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, YOUR WEEKLY DAD JOKE!

What has four wheels and flies?
