The Happy Ever Crafter

Hi, I'm Becca Courtice, a modern calligrapher and instructor from Ottawa, Ontario β€” I'm here to teach you everything I know! πŸ‘‹

Hey Reader!

I hope you're having a good week! I'm still over here pickin' away at getting my new studio (well, my entire new house) set up... and I also just got home from a 5-day visit to Idaho for a conference! (Side note here to say that never have I ever felt more committed to building a real, people-first community than ever... MAN there is so much talk about AI and "optimizing" in this creator world lately. Ugh.)

ANYWAY, I haven't been able to film much new stuff for YouTube but I do have a few new things for you... see below ☺️

LIVE ShowMeYourDrills is Back!


ShowMeYourDrills is my free calligraphy course, and it's open for enrollment (I only open enrollment once a year!). ​

We start from the very basics– you don't need ANY experience with calligraphy or art, and your current handwriting does not matter.

In the free course, you'll get:

βœ”οΈ Full access to an online course portal (just like a paid course, but it's free!)

βœ”οΈ 20+ videos

βœ”οΈ Supplies PDF guide

βœ”οΈ Full printable, traceable workbooks​

βœ”οΈ Access to a private Circle Community (and "mentors" to help answer your questions!)

βœ”οΈ The very best (& most supportive) community of other beginners to learn with​

The new semester starts July 6th - I hope to see you there!


Free Signage Workshop with Mabz!


Mabz (@chalkedbymabz for those of you who don't know her!) and I have partnered up on a new free workshop as part of the Art & Business of Modern Calligraphy Summit!

Using a free template, we're teaching a lesson on how to easily & effectively get your lettering and calligraphy onto bigger and more challenging surfaces – glass, wood, chalkboards, and acrylic.

We're teaching what pens to use (and not use), how to do the actual transfer process, our tips & tricks for troubleshooting, and more.

Oh and we're also giving away insaaaaaanely helpful paint pen cheat sheets that have previously only been available inside our full signage course. 🀫

Anyway, just wanted to share it and fill you in on that new summit for calligraphers in case you hadn't seen it yet πŸ₯°

Father's Day Card Ideas!


Father's Day is this Sunday, so I wanted to share some of my favourite designs if you're still looking for card ideas. πŸ₯°

What I've Been Up To This Week...


The other morning I saw this TikTok video about the difference between Mother's Day cards and Father's Day cards... and I couldn't unsee it.

And those cards totally do not describe the amazing Father's in my life. So I let it inspire my design for this year's Father's Day card, and made a more thoughtful option! ☺️

You can watch the video of how I made it here.

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, YOUR WEEKLY DAD JOKE!
